According to MSNBC TV, an extremely large avalanche has fallen on The Canyons ski resort, at least one and possibly up to 15 skiers are missing. apparantly they were in an out of bounds area, and brought it down on themselves. I know this part of the resort pretty well, and have skied Dutch Draw a few times.The hills are a dangerous place sometimes.

If you ski or board, always remember that. Link

Wow, sort of surreal to hear those sorts of things happening to places I have been. I hope everyone is safe and secure. Mighty harsh way to learn a lesson.
