Avalanche

Search and rescue teams headed to the area on Saturday evening and found signs of an avalanche.

Authorities say an avalanche near Lake Tahoe has killed eight backcountry skiers, and one person remains missing. The slide occurred Tuesday in Northern California's Sierra Nevada mountains. It is one of the deadliest avalanches in U.S. history.

Heavy snow and wind this week is creating some of the most dangerous avalanche conditions of the season. The Colorado Avalanche Information Center is warning recreators to stay out of harm's way.

A skier was buried to their waist and carried 200 yards last week after triggering a massive slab avalanche on Berthoud Pass’s “Postage Stamp” run.

The new weather stations map includes stations operated by the CAIC, ski areas, the SNOTEL network and CDOT.

Two snowboarders and a skier recorded video of a recent avalanche in RMNP.

The Colorado Avalanche Information Center is tracking recent snowfall and an increased risk of avalanches in most mountain areas across the state.

Avalanche centers across our region were exempted from a U.S. Forest Service hiring pause for seasonal workers.

Avalanche season is here, but a new partnership between Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the Colorado Avalanche Information Center aims to make it easier to stay updated on risks and warnings.

For a second consecutive year, the Avalanche are on the brink of elimination with Valeri Nichushkin, one of their top players, unavailable due to circumstances away from the ice. The 29-year-old Russian forward was suspended for at least six months without pay and placed in stage 3 of the league's player assistance program.
