Comments
This avalanche naturally occurred between 8:30 AM and 4:00 PM today. There was no debris pile at the bottom of the couloir this morning when I drove up the canyon at 8:30 AM but was present at 4:00 PM when I drove down the canyon. I was unable to view a crown to estimate depth, starting elevation, or avalanche problem.
