The search continues this morning by the Beaver County Sheriff's deputies for a snowmobile rider who got lost in an avalanche Thursday evening around five.

Sergeant Glen Woolsey says two people on snowmobiles were in the bowl area on Circleville Mountain when the avalanche hit.

A man riding behind the first two said one of the snowmobilers got out from under the snow and waved at him.

The search for the other man continues this morning.
