Comments
This loose dry avalanche entrained a good amount of snow. Most likely animal-triggered; I observed tracks traversing directly above where the slide started. Probably goats. I saw a bunch of goats on the ridgeline across the drainage. The snow surface is weak. I skied in some steep terrain today and did not initiate any sluffs or loose dry avalanches.
