Comments
Reported via UAC app. Location puts it in the upper, northeast facing section of Pink Pine. The photo was taken sideways so the aspect and steepness data is incorrect. They reported it was a ski cut so I'm assuming it was intentional and I'm assuming it was a wind slab running on the old snow interface if it was like all the other avalanches triggered around that time.
