Backcountry user caught in avalanche on Teton Pass

WILSON, Wyo. — According to the Bridger-Teton Avalanche Center (BTAC), today around 2:15 p.m. a backcountry user was caught in an avalanche on The Claw, a popular ski run on Teton Pass.

BTAC’s report states that one person was carried and partially buried and sustained a critical injury in the slide. The Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) closed the road over Teton Pass for approximately 45 minutes to execute the rescue.

In today’s avalanche report, BTAC emphasized that “dangerous avalanche conditions exist in the backcountry. Skiers and riders have the potential to trigger slab avalanches in steep terrain above 8000 feet on a variety of aspects.”

The Teton County Search and Rescue (TCSAR) helicopter can be seen landing on the roadway in a video from Buckrail reader Tucker Zibilich.

When she’s not outside, you can probably find her eating a good meal, playing cribbage, or at one of the local yoga studios. She’s interested in what makes this community tick, both from the individual and collective perspective.
