Avalanche

East Ridge/East Col Couloir on Hallett Peak, North Aspect. R4,D3 running 1,000' starting elevation 11,000'. About a 8-10' crown, running full depth, looked like it had stepped down to persistent slab. Likely Naturally triggered (windloading present), though UNK. We estimated the slide likely occurred during the storm Friday or Saturday. Much of the debris was covered. Dragon tail and dead elk as well as the cirque looker's left also appeared to have slid as debris was present throughout the apron.
