It was calm and foggy in the early morning hours when the Bell 407 helicopter departed Kedarnath with a scheduled turnaround toward Guptkashi at about 5:20 a.m. Expecting nothing, only a leisurely a few minutes later, in a flash, it crashed near Gaurikund with low visibility due to dense cloud cover. Flames quickly engulfed the wreckage, and when first responders arrived at the crash site, all passengers - 7 souls (including an infant) - were gone. It's just sad, right? A simple journey turned into horror.
