[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My heart aches for all the lives lost and their families. I hope that strict safety laws are put in place to prevent such accidents. [/quote] What laws, exactly, do you think would have prevented this? They might try to prove criminal negligence by the guides, but that law already exists.[/quote] There could be laws that require risk mitigation training of guides, as well as whistleblower protections for guides that go against a decision they believe is unsafe. Guide companies could be required to have something like a chief safety officer that had some independence to make decisions. There could be requires insurance for trip cancellation due to safety risks. lots of ways that risk is addressed in other industries. However this would be expensive and bureaucratic and probably not all that effective with small guide companies. [/quote]
