Snow avalanche in Bobnarjeva grapa buries two hikers
1.03.2009
Yesterday afternoon, a snow avalanche in Bobnarjeva grapa buried two alpinists who were climbing Brana. They had set out with two colleagues who were climbing another route. They last reported around 14:00, but when they did not return by evening, a rescue operation was launched.
Mountain rescuers found the victims just after midnight, but sadly both were already dead.
