Statement
The Colorado Avalanche Information Center is issuing a Special Avalanche Statement for the mountains of Colorado this morning. This Special Statement will remain in effect through the upcoming weekend.
There have been two avalanche fatalities in Colorado since February 13th. This brings avalanche fatalities to 6 for the season.
Over the last week seven people have been caught in avalanches. Two people have been seriously injured and required hospital care.
Very large avalanches have been reported across the state.
This trend is expected to continue through the holiday weekend.
Do not let the upcoming holiday weekend or the nice weather in any way fool you into thinking the avalanche conditions are anything but very serious across Colorado.
