Climber Killed by Ranier Avalanche

Two climbers have been hit by an avalanche near Disappointment Cleaver on Ingraham glacier at about the 11,000-foot level of the 14,411 foot mountain. It seems the slide was triggered by the collapse of a snowbridge over a crevasse. The men were training for an attempt on Mt McKinley.
