Spokane Washington Avalanche Victim Remembered

'A Spokane man died Saturday after he was swept away by an avalanche while skiing near Wallace.

Searchers found Mark Tuggle's body Sunday morning.

News4 talked with a close friend of Tuggle Monday afternoon. His friend, Ken Frederick, described Tuggle as an experienced skier.

Frederick says the area where Tuggle died was a favorite place for them to ski, after resorts in the area closed down for the season.

Frederick says Tuggle was one of a kind, a thrill seeker, and will be deeply missed.

Plans are being made for a memorial service. Frederick expects hundreds of people will attend.'
