Comments
We're unsure of exactly when this occurred, but it looked fairly fresh when observed in the the afternoon of 3-20-2015. In the photo it looks like it might have been triggered by a sledder riding across the top of the slope.
Comments
The party observed another wet avalanche on Andrew Nyman Peak a few miles across the State Line up in Idaho.
