Avalanche

While climbing Louise Falls this morning, observed large avalanche come off slide path directly across lake from climb. Starting zone was on upper third of slope, and a noticable powder blast reached us on the climb. Not exactly sure of the time but it was before the lake had many people on it. Assume it was naturally triggered.
