Came in to a new observation of avalanche activity approx. 150ft across and 2-3ft deep. After testing slope with the machine, the crown gave way and ride looped out and was able to ride the avalanche down. No injuries.
1st image is the avalanche we came up on. 2nd image is after snowmobile triggered 2nd avalanche.
