Three climbers die after falling down ravine in Washington national park

Three climbers from suburban Seattle were killed in a fall while rappelling down a steep gully in North Cascades National Park on Sunday due to an anchor failure. The incident occurred as the group was descending the area near North Early Winters Spire, with three climbers at the scene and one survivor who suffered internal bleeding and a traumatic brain injury before being rescued by a helicopter. investigations are underway to determine the cause of the fall, which officials believe may have been avoidable due to the use of an unstable anchor point, not typically used in such terrain.
