Quite obviously no ATC involvement but just a reminder that mid-airs can happen in remote spots as well as busy airspace.

The survival of the helicopter pilot and passenger - especially in view of the remoteness from rescue facilities - is to be applauded but sadly the fixed wing occupants had no such luck.
