Two skiers, buried in weekend avalanches in B.C., saved by friends: Avalanche Canada

The Avalanche Canada website says both events happened Saturday and each one involved a fully buried skier who was saved because of the quick work of others in their group.

Avalanche Canada says the “deep and persistent” problem related to the unstable snowpack still affects most slopes in the B.C. backcountry and is now complicated by newly formed, touchy wind slabs. Twelve people have died in six separate avalanches around southern B.C. since January, and Avalanche Canada has repeatedly warned people to make “conservative, low-consequence choices” if they head out at all.
