well yes..there are always things that can be done..But they need money......
the trouble is that glaciers are still elusive and not much technology exists to predict such events...
May be ultrasonic scan of glacier could have revealed a melting under-surface which acted as lubricant on which a 5 million ton chunk of ice slid down that night.....
But then again it needs specialist equipment and expertise...both PA don't have for glaciers....
This may be an opportunity to train some army officers specialising in glacier studies and after being trained and equipped they can run regular scans of our glaciers....
