Comments
Unknown trigger. Came across at 2pm on Friday. Looks like it could have been either skier triggered or a natural cornice fall. Likely to be a windslab that possibly stepped down in places. Hard to tell timing due to the bed surface loading back in. But would guess that it occurred in the late morning.
