Comments

Saw this avalanche on the skiers far right corner pocket of No Name Bowl, not sure if it was skier triggered of not, there were tracks down the bed surface and in the debris at the bottom. Looks to have pulled out yesterday sometime there was a little new snow on the debris and the bed surface. I was kinda surprised the whole bowl didn't rip out knowing the underlying snow was faceted to the ground.
