Yesterday I heard it was snowing 15” and hour up there. Wolf Creek always gets a ton of snow too.

Hopefully the snowmobilers have found a cabin to hole up in (they’re supposed to be familiar with the area). The skiers, I’m not so optomistic.

Got about a foot here, and still coming down.

One of the AP stories out of CO has searchers finding the car of the two snowboarders at the Wolf Creek ski area parking lot. They may have gone out of bounds or into an avalanche area. Unfortunately, if they are not found soon, it will likely be spring before location, especially if they did not carry a gps locater. Twenty years ago, when I X-cty skied that area, we went single file and quietly across avalanche chutes so that if one came others could help find/rescue them.
