After the recent tragic loss of Marty & Denali Schmidt on K2 I'm sorry to pass on news of the death of Jamie Vinton-Boot, killed in an avalanche on the Remarkables earlier today.

Another blow to a small community. My profound sympathies to all their families and friends. Stay safe out there guys.

In reply to ben b: Terrible news, it really brings it home when I had climbed a route on the west face two days earlier.
