A 32-year-old woman from Whitehorse was killed Feb. 21 while snowmobiling in the Carcross area. Police responded to a call of an injured snowmobiler at 3:30 p.m. as did medical personnel and search & rescue members, but upon arrival, found the woman had died.
The woman was driving a two-person snow machine with a passenger at the time. It appears that the driver had crested a small hill and then dropped a few feet coming to a sudden halt. The deceased was wearing an approved helmet at the time. Alcohol is not believed to be a factor in this incident. Officials are continuing to investigate and the name of the victim has not been released.
