Victoria Luck, 47, was with partner Matthew Radnor. He took her to Betws-y-Coed in Wales in December 2021 as a pre-Christmas present for her.

The partners decided to descend the mountain in different directions in an attempt to find their way down, and Radnor chose a route that would be easier for their dog Louis, who accompanied the couple on their journey, to descend.
According to Radnor, Luck descended into the ravine and said she would continue down that path.

But after a few minutes, Radnor heard his partner screaming, but did not see her fall.
He said, “Louis was a smart dog. I started screaming and realized something was wrong.”
With his cry for help, Radnor alerted people in the area that an incident had occurred.
A Coast Guard rescue helicopter arrived on the scene and Lak was put aboard the plane, but she died of her injuries on December 19.

Luck, a teacher for children with special educational needs from Wolverhampton, was "impressed" by a landscape lake she saw on TikTok, and it was the reason for her trip.
After her death, Father Gordon Luck said: “Vicki has a large circle of friends, she was a mentor to others. The daughter always helped others, and her house was always open to those who needed her. She was a devoted mother and a talented caring person. Victoria loved life, had a good sense of humor and was a caring daughter. Everyone misses her."
Assistant Senior Coroner for North West Wales Sarah Riley ruled that Ms Luck's death was an "accident".
