Cartier is the fourth person — and second climber — to die on the mountain this year. The other two fatalities involved snowboarders.

Sucks. Mother Nature can be brutal.

Anytime you are in the mountains, you can be taken out. Snowboarding, climbing, skiing, the smallest of errors can have deadly results. RIP.
