Comments
Toured up Mineral basin today. Between my uptrack and exit (9am and 10:15am) a D2.5 avalanche came across the skin track. There was a skin track up to that basin so I assume human triggered. I later toured up to Georges bowl and attached photos of crowns all along the Mineral Basin NE slopes.
