Jared Jones, who was speaking in a press conference regarding the helicopter crash said the two helicopters were attempting to land in an approved training area about 150 yards away from the Snowbird’s boundaries but as they landed, the snow kicked up and aircraft probably lost sight on the ground causing the blad of one strucking the other one and causing damages

“As they landed, the snow kicked up and the aircraft probably lost sight of the ground, we know there were portions of the rotor blade that separated from the helicopter and struck the second helicopter.”

“The second helicopter, after being hit by pieces of the first helicopter, was able to make a quick landing at that point.”

“It was a blessing that everyone was okay,” Jones said.
