Comments
we left Keiths hut and went down on the NW aspect toward the landslide. 3 skier skied down. 4th skier dropped in on a convexity above a 15 feet cliff. The slope triggered 10-15m above him by 15m wide by 70cm deep. 4th skier went down with the avalanche and got cliffed out then triggered the slab below the cliff. Partial burial self rescued. No injuries and one involvement. Size 2 avalanche. Remote trigger 2.5 from size 2 skier accidental.
