Scary Avalanches at Bijoux

First hand info from party caught in avalanche at Bijoux: Three members of a group were helping a fourth member from a different group get unstuck from a slope. After he rode off the three remaining members were all either walking back to their sleds or sitting on their sleds when the avalanche was triggered and hit them from above. All three were caught and carried. Two were partially buried and one fully buried. All managed to self extricate including the fully buried individual. Minor injuries and sled damage occurred. All members were able to return to staging under their own power.
