Avalanches and climbers have ‘essential’ relation as both face each other on regular basis. Avalanches are considered as one of the major reasons for the death of the climbers due to their sheer speed and size.
Same happened with the climbers at Kuksar Peak in Passu, when a huge avalanche with the sheer speed hit them near the base camp.

In the video shared by mountaineer, Azam Dari, an avalanche can be seen coming towards them from the mountain. The climbers look at the avalanche and then hid behind the rocks for cover.
The video shows the intensity of the avalanche as it covers the climber with snow within seconds. All the climbers and porters, however, remained safe.
