BRECKENRIDGE, Colo. (AP) — A moose on the loose caught several skiers and snowboarders by surprise as it galloped headlong down a run at Breckenridge Ski Resort in Colorado.

Cheri Luther was snowboarding Friday when she saw the moose approaching, and shot video of the large animal coming within feet of her.

Resort officials say no one was hurt, adding that the encounter also is a good reminder that skiers and snowboarders share the mountain with wildlife.
