Blackbird Mountain Guides has ceased operations less than a year after an avalanche killed nine people on a backcountry ski trip in California’s Sierra Nevada on Feb. 17. The company faced questions over proceeding despite storm warnings; an August report said the group entered an avalanche zone after a creek crossing proved unsafe. Cal/OSHA issued citations and fined the company more than $150,000, while the sheriff’s office completed its criminal investigation and sent findings to prosecutors, who have not announced whether charges will be filed.
