Reuters, California. Snow storm and avalanche have caused huge devastation in California, America. Eight of the nine skiers reported missing after a massive avalanche on Castle Peak in the Tahoe area have died, according to official police information Wednesday. Rescue teams have recovered their bodies, while one person is still reported missing.
Nevada County Sheriff Shannon Moon confirmed the tragedy, saying, "Rescue teams are working diligently, but the loss of eight members is a major tragedy. We are still searching for one missing member and every possible effort is underway to locate him."
The accident occurred early Tuesday when a group of skiers were at Castle Peak. Due to the sudden avalanche, the entire group got caught in it. During the initial relief and rescue operations, six skiers were evacuated safely, out of which two were admitted to the hospital in critical condition. However, the lives of eight of the other nine missing could not be saved.
The rescue operation is facing a lot of challenges due to heavy snowfall and adverse weather in the area. Authorities have warned locals and tourists to stay away from high mountain areas and avalanche-prone areas.
