Comments
Small convexity, observed earlier group ski zone knew of possible pocket release. First skier went left of obvious roll dropped speed and cut most of roll not expecting much, skied out. 2nd skier went down bed surface. 3rd skier slightly left triggered rest of slope, buried to shoulders. Very carefully picked way out triggering another roll through trees.
