Comments

We noticed this on our way out around 14:00 from a kilometer away. We rode near it and did a beacon search just to confirm it was clear. We hope no one got injured. Stay safe out there
East facing ~2200m. Three snowmobile tracks visible in the bed surface and above the crown. Smaller avalanche to the north appears to have remote triggered. Crown line approx 0.8-1.2m deep.
