Comments
See photo of drawn start zone. Skier accidental triggered from 5M above convexity, skiing across supported gully feature. Touchy 1F windslab propagating 150M across whole feature. Crown depth varied from 5-40cm. Triggered at deepest point. We called this a Sz 2 based on mass, could fully bury a skier. This ran on the 1cm freezing rain crust at 1500m elevation. Easterly cross loaded slope. No involvement
