Avalanche and Flooding concerns

3/5/2018 (Permalink)

People all over the Truckee Meadows woke up to at least several inches of fresh powder March 3, 2018. 

While that is a welcome sight, there are concerns this weekend that people not being careful could trigger an avalanche in the back country.

The Sierra Avalanche Center says there is "Considerable Danger" of an avalanche for Saturday, if skiers and snowshoers in the back country, aren't careful.

They are warning people, if they do go out into those areas this weekend, be aware. They say don't let "Powder Fever" get in the way of good judgment. 

Please let's be careful out there while we are on the mountain for our safety and the safety of others. Over the weekend we had several people get caught in avalanches already. With the extra snow fall we will have to be mindful of the Truckee River flooding this spring as well.
