The slide kicked up a towering cloud of grey dust that had other hikers rushing to safety.
Officials have said one person was found dead at the scene, two people were airlifted to hospital in Calgary and a third was taken by ground ambulance.
Low-flying helicopters were seen scanning the area late Thursday for potential missing hikers.
Officials say those who haven’t been able to account for loved ones are to contact Parks Canada.
