Skiing accidents are common in Lake Tahoe as it is a top snow sports destination in the west coast. However, Tuesday’s avalanche is perhaps the scariest Lake Tahoe has seen in recent times.
The intensity of the accident was captured in an emergency response video at Lake Tahoe, located along the Sierra Nevada mountains on the border between California and Nevada.
Here’s the video, shared on The Citizen app:

What To Know About The Survivors
Of the six survivors, two women and four men aged 30 to 55 were rescued, including one guide from Blackbird Mountain Guides and five clients, Sheriff Shannan Moon said. The trip included 15 people in total—four guides and 11 clients—made up of nine women and six men.
“Extreme weather conditions is an understatement,” she said. “Due to the ongoing challenges of the weather, the avalanche conditions, the effort remains ongoing, as well as our search for the remaining skier.”
