   Two ski patrollers performing avalanche mitigation work at a California   
   ski resort were injured in an avalanche on Friday, the resort operator   
   said.   
      
   The avalanche occurred at Mammoth Mountain at approximately 7:30 a.m.   
   local time, prior to ski area operations. The two patrollers got caught in   
   a slide and were transported to an area hospital, the resort said.   
      
   One person sustained serious injuries and was being transported out of the   
   area for further care, while the other was evaluated for possible broken   
   bones, the resort said.   
      
   The ski area was closed for the remainder of the day amid high avalanche   
   danger, the resort said.   
      
   Mammoth Mountain, which is located in Mammoth Lakes in the Sierra Nevada   
   mountains, has received more than 5 feet of snow since Tuesday, the resort   
   said.
