The article is new enough, long enough, and compliant. The hooks are short enough, neutral and interesting. I found a free access version of source 14 but not source 4. Even so, I found other reliable sources confirming the hook facts. My only quibble is with the assertion that she was "dropped out of a helicopter to ski," which suggests she was dropped through the air onto the slope as opposed to being dropped off. The source I found here says she was merely "dropped off" at the top: "Skiers are taken by helicopter to the top of the glacier and dropped off to ski down with a guide through fresh powder ..." QPQ is done. If we can clarify my one quibble (either with language from source 4 or with a modified alt hook), this will be good to go. Cbl62 (talk) 20:57, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for checking that out. It did seem pretty daredevil to me. I edited the paragraph in the article and submit this alt:
