Comments
A large avalanche occurred on Squaretop on the park city ridge line between 1 and 3:30 pm on Saturday, April 1st. It appears to have been triggered by a natural cornice collapse, but there were tracks on the other side of the spine from the avalanche path, so it could have been triggered by a skier.
