episode_narrativeThree natural avalanches occurred near Red Mountain Pass. Portions of highway 550 were affected, covering the centerline with up to 2 feet of snow for a distance of 125 feet. Avalanche mitigation resulted in several more slides hitting the roadway, including a large avalanche just above Chattanooga that buried the highway with over 12 feet of compacted snow. A number of temporary road closures took place as debris was cleared.
