The conditions in the ravine at the time were reportedly described as icy as first responders had to endure snow and winds, per the AP. "The snow rangers and emergency personnel were up there late last night. They're exhausted," U.S. Forest Service spokesperson Colleen Mainville said via the news agency.

According to New Hampshire’s travel and tourism website, Tuckerman Ravine is located on the east side of Mount Washington in the White Mountain National Forest. Known for its “spectacular scenery, deep snow, and challenging terrain,” the ravine attracts thousands of visitors and is open year-round, though it is particularly popular during the spring and summer.

“No matter when you come the most important rule of thumb is to plan ahead and prepare!” the website warned. “The terrain can be overwhelming; the weather is often downright inhospitable; and the sometimes-sizeable crowds can cloud your perception of the Ravine’s actual remoteness.”

Mount Washington was also the setting of a recent incident involving a Kentucky man who had to be rescued. Joabe Barbosa, 23, was hiking on the mountain last week when he fell, hit his head and lost a shoe, per authorities.

New Hampshire Fish and Game officials said that Barbosa went off the trail and into the Ammonoosuc Ravine. "While descending into the ravine, Barbosa fell and hit his head and face, lost one of his sneakers, and eventually became hypothermic,” they added.

Barbosa was eventually found by conservation officers after he was able to call 911. He was later taken to a medical facility. Authorities said that Barbosa was "not prepared for the hike."
