Comments
Headwall avalanche during the weekend storm (#1 in picture). Likely due to windloading; ran from the ridgeline. This is a repeater from the holiday avalanche cycle. However, both this one and it's neighbor (#2) did not go as completely as the avalanches that occured during the holiday cycle.
