Happened just a few hours ago. It would seem that some dumbasses didn't take heed to the warnings posted about skiing out of bounds. I was just talking to one of the rescuers and he said that there are some people missing, and some confirmed dead.
I'll update with a news link when available.
Local news link
Doesn't mention deaths, but I'll take the rescuers first hand word for the time being.
It's on CNN's front page now:
