Comments
Noted this avalanche in the Smith and Morehouse area. It appeard to have been a slab avalanche that broke in the the steep trees above the runout. Hard to tell what type of avalanche it was but based off of the other ones we had seen I would suspect it was some sort of PWL triggered by cornicefall or a tree bomb.
