Comments
Traversing into the supported line on Purple Bowl (well above the crown in moderate terrain).
Sr(50) size 2.0 70m wide, 50m run, 30-50cm deep.
Adjacent to (and connected with) previous Sr from March 26. The bowl has a significant mid slope convexity (where the avalanche triggered), and there was lots of wind loading into the bowl from mod-strong southerly winds (overnight and through the day).
