May 22, 2013
A helicopter was damaged in an avalanche at Siellavagge, approx 10-15 km south of Abisko, earlier today. Local newspapers state that the avalanche, which was triggered by people in the area, flipped the AS350 B3 helicopter over, but that nobody was injured in the accident. The region is very popular for its heli-skiing, and several companies operate in the area.
