Helicopter located and both occupants confirmed dead according to news reports.
What a crappy few weeks we've had - every year seems to start and end with a run of tragedies.
Condolences to the families involved.

From the nearby airport approx at the time of the crash. Snow on the ground as well naturally.
Dark at the time as well, sunset 14:30 ish local time.
The terrain is mostly woodland down in the valleys, and the location given in media is here: Google Maps
