Three British Columbians have died this avalanche season.
Avalanche Canada is warning outdoor enthusiasts about snowpack conditions in B.C. following another avalanche-caused death in the province.Avalanche Canada says the pair was riding at the base of a slope in a feature known as Bowl 3 in the Oasis area when the avalanche happened.
On Jan. 9, two off-duty Nelson police officers were caught in an avalanche while backcountry skiing near Kaslo, B.C. Avalanche Canada says the snowpack is dangerous in Valemount and "incredibly difficult" in the Interior. The agency adds the Interior is experiencing conditions for persistent slab avalanches; that's where a thick slab of snow loses its bond to an underlying weak layer that is buried deep in the snowpack.
