Chateau Lake Louise luxury hotel: The people who have died since March 8 range from snowmobilers, backcountry skiers, hikers and snowshoers to a father and son who were buried while tobogganing within sight of the Chateau Lake Louise luxury hotel, according to Huffington Post. "In at least two of these accidents the people probably were not aware of avalanches at all and that is a huge challenge for us. We are looking for ways to be able to extend the reach of our public safety initiatives." B.C. - An avalanche expert says the deaths of eight people this month in the mountains of British Columbia and Alberta is especially heartbreaking because there is so much information available warning of the danger. "It is frustrating when a significant number of people die in avalanches," Ilya Storm, a spokesman for the Canadian Avalanche Centre, said Monday.
