Deadly snowmobile crashes have been all too common this winter in Saskatchewan — and it's happened again.

A Saskatoon woman is dead after crashing her snowmobile northeast of Candle Lake.

Smeaton RCMP said it happened at about 5 p.m. Saturday. Witnesses tell them the 46-year-old driver failed to make a turn on the trail and crashed into some trees.

Her name is not being released as Mounties notify her family.
