Sheriff Says Several Unaccounted For In Lake Tahoe Avalanche

Crews are responding to an avalanche at a Northern California ski resort with several people unaccounted for.

 

The Placer County sheriff's office posted the report in a tweet but a spokesperson did not respond to a request for more information.

 

A storm passing through the area Thursday dumped several inches of snow at Squaw Valley-Alpine Meadows, a ski resort in the Squaw Valley area of Lake Tahoe.

 

An avalanche at Alpine Meadows in 1982 killed seven people, including several employees of the ski resort.
