Avalanche today at Park City. RPG was stopped for a good 30 minutes I'd say to make way for the helicopters landing. so took Short Cut down. I literally just commented yesterday how avy conditions are going to be about as bad as could be right now, and sure enough some idiots went into Dutch Draw anyway. Luckily as we were leaving we heard all 3 of them survived, but the search was still going on as there were reports it was thought there was a 4th person in there.

I think there was one slide with three involved off Dutches and a second one off Peak 5 that the guy was buried in
