An avalanche on Loveland Pass trapped at least one vehicle and closed U.S. 6 in both directions on Friday night, according to the Clear Creek County Sheriff’s Office.
Sheriff’s officials reported the avalanche at 7:45 p.m. in a post on X and said no injuries have been reported. The highway is closed between Interstate 70 and mile 229, 10 miles east of Keystone Ski Resort, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation.
Colorado’s mountains are expected to see up to three feet of snow this weekend as winter storm pummels the high country.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
