Comments
Observed from a distance. Wasn’t very safe to approach it very closely. Likely 6-8 feet deep judging by the massive crown from distance. Ran mostly just to the first step in the bowl and left massive debris pile. Looked to be the entire bowl... guessing at 1000 feet.

Nate sent in this photo from 2/16 of the large avalanche in a little better light.
