Comments
Observed a solo skier trigger this avalanche from a distance. Luckily, he was able to ski out from under the slide path before the debris covered his tracks.
Dug on N (ECTP29) and E (ECTP17) today, obserced weaker structure in our E facing pit.
The pattern is becoming a bit more clear, at least for the Alta/Brighton periphery terrain, as this makes now three different avalanches that have ran on E facing Tuscarora terrain this week, in addition to E facing Dry Fork and Rocky Point.
