Comments
Looked like a snowcat caused this from the ridge in one big avalanche from Rhino to Scott's Bowl. Cat went to the top of Scott's and turned around along the ridge from Jupiter and caused several slides along the way. This was the biggest. Average 1ft deep but up to 6ft in isolated chunks. Down to the facets and dirt.
