Among those lost: sisters Liz Clabaugh and Caroline Sekar, along with Carrie Atkin, Danielle Keatley, Kate Morse, and Kate Vitt — women whose families say they were passionate, skilled, and deeply connected by the mountains they loved. Now investigators are asking hard questions. Avalanche warnings had been issued. The tour company had posted cautions. What happened in those final moments? Were there signs no one could see? Experts say survival chances plummet after 15 minutes under the snow. For the families, there are still “many unanswered questions.” For the backcountry community, there’s something even harder: how do you return to the place that once made you feel most alive — when it’s also where you lost the people you love?

Nancy Guthrie — mother of TODAY co-anchor Savannah Guthrie — was last seen January 31, dropped off at home just before 10 p.m. Authorities believe she was taken in the middle of the night. No motive. No named suspect. Not yet. But behind the scenes, the pressure is building — and investigators say the pieces are starting to come together. What really happened inside that house after 1:47 a.m.?

Six survived. Eight were confirmed dead. One is still missing. Among the victims: a tight-knit circle of women — mothers, sisters, lifelong friends — described by their families as “passionate, skilled skiers who cherished time together in the mountains.” They were experienced. They were trained. They were fully equipped with avalanche gear. They had spent two nights in the Frog Lake huts before beginning their return. Somewhere along the way, something went catastrophically wrong. Rescuers deployed Sno-Cats and helicopters. Survivors built makeshift shelters from tarps and, in a heartbreaking act of courage, uncovered three of their friends before help arrived. The rest were found beneath the snow. Now investigators are asking difficult questions: Why did the group choose that route? Did shifting snow conditions create a hidden trap? Was this tragedy unavoidable — or preventable?
