Kate Vitt, a former radio executive and mother of two from Marin County, was identified as the first victim of the Lake Tahoe avalanche. Vitt lived with her husband Geoff and two sons in Greenbrae and had worked as a vice president at SiriusXM before leaving in 2025. She previously worked at Pandora and Anthropologie and graduated from Boston College. Rescue crews located victims' bodies on Castle Peak near Lake Tahoe, but the Nevada County Sheriff said the bodies remain on the mountain due to hazardous weather. A group of 15 skiers was caught in the avalanche while backcountry skiing with Blackbird Mountain Guides; six were rescued and three guides were killed. Neighbors and local businesses expressed shock and grief.
