Comments
Remotely triggered this slide while descending low-angled ridge between No Name Bowl and No No Name Bowl along Park City ridgeline. We had stopped atop a steeper rollover (< 30 degrees) and the slide pulled out on a steeper slope that was between 30 and 35 degrees. Crown ranged from 30-45 cms deep, failing in faceted snow.
ECT above the crown ranged from ETCP15 to ECTPV (failed upon isolation)
