) — The Colorado Avalanche Information Center caught a natural avalanche triggered in Ten Mile Canyon near Frisco on camera Monday morning as heavy snow battered the high country.

A strong snowstorm over the weekend caused a separate avalanche on Loveland Pass that sent a vehicle nearly 50 meters off U.S. 6 and closed the road for days.

are in place across the mountains as snow continues to fall Monday and into Tuesday.

What to expect for the incoming arctic blast on Monday and Tuesday

On Monday morning, the Colorado Department of Transportation shared the avalanche video, which it said happened at 9 a.m. in Ten Mile Canyon between Frisco and Copper Mountain. Interstate 70 has experienced numerous closures over the past several days due to visibility issues and crashes, including one involving eight vehicles.

The Pinpoint Weather team is tracking more snow that will cause travel impacts, and CDOT said though the Ten Mile Canyon avalanche did not reach the roadway, the danger of additional slides remains high.

Interstate 70 will be closed most of Tuesday morning in both directions near Vail while crews work on avalanche mitigation efforts, CDOT said in a press release.
