January 16, 2024

An avalanche has occurred on Mt. Juneau above Behrends Avenue. No structures or roadways have been affected at this time.

Residents and homeowners in the Behrends subdivision are encouraged to stay alert to their surroundings and to current weather conditions. In the event of an emergency, call 911 immediately.
