Size 1.5 avalanche observed on steep SE aspect. Natural trigger, likely failed on the persistent weak layer created in January. Probably occurred within the last 24hrs. Observed from across the bowl, didn't get close enough to confirm details. We also observed a few loose wet, size 1, natural avalanches on steep SE slopes.
