Three skiers, including 2 Minnesotans, believed to be dead after avalanche in Alaska

A 39-year-old man who owns radio stations in Minnesota is believed to be dead after being caught in an avalanche in Alaska on Tuesday. Authorities say Dave Linder and two other skiers were buried in more than 30 feet of snow. The two others were identified as Charles Eppard of Montana and Jeremy Leif of Minnesota. Poor weather has prevented recovery teams from getting to the site of the avalanche.

The leader of Canada’s Ontario province says a one-month reprieve on U.S. tariffs against Canada will not stop him from enacting an additional 25 percent charge on electricity exports to three U.S. states — including Minnesota — starting on Monday.

Keys Cafe and Bakery is implementing an extra charge for eggs at their nine locations in the Twin Cities.  The local restaurant chain said the temporary surcharge is meant to offset the rising cost of eggs. The surcharge is 50 cents per egg.
