Non-fatal avalanche hits Sunshine Village Ski Resort in Banff, Alta. – Calgary
An avalanche caused by unseasonable warn weather struck Sunshine Village Ski Resort in Banff, Alta. Saturday.
The Class 2 slide happened just before 1 p.m. on Goat’s Eye Mountain on a run called Mother in Law.
Rescue crews from Sunshine and Parks Canada attended the scene to ensure no one was caught in the slide.
A Sunshine Village spokesperson said no one was injured or buried in the avalanche.
Kendra Scurfield says staff were in the process of shutting down the Mother in Law run when the slide happened.
Both Goat’s Eye chair and Standish chair have been shut down for the day and their status will be reevaluated tomorrow.
