Comments
Spotted this avalanche under the Hypo/coalpit cliffs as we were driving down canyon just after noon. The sun hit the crown line just right to illuminate it for a few minutes. You can't see it in the picture so don't look to hard, however the red circle is the location we saw it. To spot something from such a distance it must have been over 10ft tall (PWL type of slide) and over 100ft wide.
