Search and rescue crews are looking for several unaccounted victims. An exact number has not been given by authorities.

Exactly when the avalanche occurred is unclear.

The Sierra Avalanche Center rated avalanche conditions on Friday as “considerable” for all elevations. Officials noted that the storm that moved through Northern California late this week brought a high degree of uncertainty to snowpack instability.

Caltrans says Highway 89 at Alpine Meadows remains open.
