A 44-year-old Calgary woman has died, after a tragic fall off Mount Fable near Canmore on Sunday.

Seasoned hiker and adventurist, Trina Ramanaden was hiking with a group on Mount Fable this past Sunday, when she separated from her friends to venture off on her own and tackle a different and more challenging route. Ramanaden's body was later discovered by a Kananaskis Country Public Safety helicopter.

Corporal Troy Savinkoff is the Search and Rescue Liasion with Cochrane RCMP and he says that it's unfortunate that when these types of tragedies occur, it is quite often the same narrative.

He says "We too often hear about one person from the group splitting off by themselves, and it does happen that they get in trouble. When they're by themselves it doesn't allow for a lot of fallbacks to have somebody to be able to number one assist them and number two call for help if further assistance is needed."

Savinkoff says that it's difficult to prepare for every scenario, and even the most seasoned hikers can find themselves in dangerous situations. "There's a lot of unknowns in nature. Whether you encounter loose footings, a lot of people like to climb up because those are usually where the best views are and it comes with a lot of dangers with it. There's also wildlife that people can encounter and get in trouble or injured because of it."

Earlier this month Cochrane RCMP teamed up with Kananaskis Emergency Services to locate a deceased 56-year-old man, who was the victim of a paragliding accident. It was later confirmed that the man was venturing alone.

Savinkoff says that while exploring our mountainous terrain, or undertaking these types of unpredictable adventures it's always best to incorporate a buddy system. He says "When you have more than one person and a buddy system, you have other people who are aware of where you're going and aware of what time you're supposed to be back then it does allow a certain amount of safety and increases your survivability if something does go wrong."
