"DENVER Jan. 3 A winter storm that brought up to three feet of snow to
parts of Colorado's high country Saturday was blamed for a fatal plane
crash and an avalanche that temporarily shut down Vail Pass.
Westbound lanes of Interstate 70 on Vail Pass were closed for about three
hours after an avalanche left about six feet of snow on the road. No one
was caught in the slide.
The west side of U.S. 160 in Wolf Creek Pass in southwestern Colorado also
was blocked by avalanches.
More than 100 avalanches had been reported in Colorado's central mountains
and San Juan Mountains since a storm dumped up to three feet of snow
beginning Friday.
Blizzard-like conditions also temporarily closed 40 miles of I-80 on Friday
in southwestern Wyoming and more than 70 miles of the interstate in
California's Sierra Nevada on Thursday. Also Thursday, large sections of
Interstate 5 were closed in Oregon and California. The closure of I-5 in
California, between Redding and Yreka, was the third of the week."
