Hearsay is not usually a good source.
OMG. So sad.
Holy fuck, that is gut wrenching if true.
True, and I don't take lightly the spreading of such news.
In this case, it comes from the Engineering Dept at MSU, where my old man has worked with Inge's dad for years. I went on a hut trip in Canada with Dr. Perkins and his son, Gunnar.
If this is shown to be untrue, I'll wipe the posts, but there's no reason to believe so at this time.

RIP to both Hayden and Inge.
What a tragedy.
Shit, that is brutal in so many ways.
if what norseman has said is true, that is fucking tragic beyond belief. Already tragic to lose two absolute crushers, but to lose one to suicide..... FUCK
HK was truly inspiring and I really enjoyed his writing. Such a loss, condolences to friends and family.

I did not read all the posts here, But so early in the year?
And this was not a Back Country skiing , correct?
Incorrect.
"Two skiers were approaching the north couloir when they triggered the avalanche. Both were caught, one fully buried and one partial. The fully buried skier was recovered from the scene by Gallatin County Search and Rescue yesterday.”
“On Saturday, two skiers hiked 6 miles from the Upper Taylor Fork trailhead to the north couloir of Imp Peak. Near the bottom of the couloir around 10,000’, they triggered an avalanche while ascending on skis with skins. The avalanche was 1-2’ deep at the crown, approximately 150’ wide, and 300’ long. The slope where the avalanche released was 38-45° steep with a north-northeast aspect."
Oof. Best wishes to family and friends.
Dude, this is fucking terrible. So sad.
This is awful. RIP.
Sounds like they didn't have beacons? If so, that is pretty surprising considering their level of knowledge and mountaineering experience.
Maybe she forgot to turn hers on.
Devastating, I wish the best to their families. If I was in the same situation as him I'm not sure I would be able to cope with it either. Life is fragile.
