northwest avalanche center

The Washington State Department of Transportation says crews are still making repairs and clearing debris.

U.S. Forest Service spokesperson Robin DeMario says the in-between time period known as shoulder season will take a while to arrive.

The Northwest Avalanche Center says people trapped in an avalanche have an 80-90% chance of survival if they're rescued within 10 minutes.

The center is partnering with the Wenatchee River Institute to host an introductory class tonight to provide a basic approach to managing risk.
