Good deal man.
Sounds like 2 have been “recovered”.

[glademaster]

Recovery implies they're dead. Not sure if that's what you're going for, but hoping for poor word choice and nothing more.

That is all that people who are there are saying. One persons husband recovered the two. Nothing about vitals. So not my wording. Passing along info as it comes. Nothing more or less.
Edit for update:
3 people have been recovered.
I’m trying to get info on their status. Hoping for the best.

[2FUNKY]

Up to 4 now.
Fuck.

[abraham]

Fuck. Not good

[Cdubmpdx]

Copy that, I saw the posts that you were quoting. Hoping for the best.

Good news.

Just came here to post this. Thank you. Great news.
So happy that all came out ok and a little more respect for their environment. Our Avy conditions are super high right now. Tons of new snow with wind transport and warming temps. Sounds like they were in a closed area as well and for good reason.

[SkiLyft]

Wow, 10ft rescue, found with probe!!

This is crazy! I've skied there nearly 20 years and have never heard of an avy, not small or big. It is unreal that it slid and buried people today! I used to beep when I skied wardner or the meadows, I'll probably resume that practice!

I'm glad everyone was found safe and sound, I can't imagine how terrifying that was!!!

[1080Rider]

Do I see a crown just below the weather station? Crazy stuff!!!

[glademaster]

RIP to the deceased.

[Norseman]

RIP to the deceased.

Ah fuck. I see the article has been updated. RIP, skier.

[jono]

Heavy over light down there, too? The foggy basin left the ropes on part of the north bowl today. Word was sluff moved well yesterday, and everything since has been heavier.

Seems like one of the more "interesting" snowpacks in recent memory. Stay safe out there!

ETA: Just saw they lost one. Damn. RIP.

[mooseknuckles]

Fucking hell, it just gets worse the more I read. Vibes to everyone in the Silver Valley.
