Comments
While out snowmobiling I came across 2 avalanches. The first is the one I’m reporting as I have photos on it. My group did not see these avalanches trigger, just the aftermath. Based on the high marks of snowmobiles, most likely the trigger.
Location of pictured/reported avalanche: 40.52407, -110.99475
Coordinates of my observation of reported avalanche: 40.5253, -110.9919
Approximate location of second avalanche I spot: 40.53037, -111.00125
This one was within the trees. Trigger most likely snowmobile, saw tracks go into it.
Both very similar aspects and elevation, close in proximity.
Other snow observations - large cornice observed nearby: 40.53196, -111.00318
