Lead off story on BCTV news, "massive" avalanche on boulder mtn. 2 dead, "many" critically injured. 8 choppers pulling out victims. Some sort of snowmobile event happening today? The news doesn't have solid info about what is happening, said they will keep the public updated. This one sounds real bad folks.
