Authorities are looking into whether a criminal negligence investigation should be opened into the deaths of multiple skiers following an avalanche in Lake Tahoe, according to a new report.
Eight out of fifteen experienced backcountry skiers and guides have died, and one is still missing, presumed dead, after the group was hit by a 100-yard-wide avalanche on a ‘Class 3’ route, meaning a route that is prone to avalanches.
