Comments
Snowmobile trigger evaded by rider. Surprisingly connected across the base of cliff band. The snow in the starting zone was upside down with low density and some graupel underlying a slab formed by dense snow/ spindrift off cliff. Slick bed surface. The slide extends across almost the entire width of the zoomed out photo attached.
