Comments
Cornice fall, estimated to be the size of a car or larger. Appeared to be naturally triggered sometime this morning, as there was a few inches of snow on top of the debris. Looked as if it also triggered a wind slab below and ran into a narrow gully. Shallow very soft wind slabs were also easily triggered with ski cuts.
