Skier triggered avalanche on a NW aspect. Triggered on a convexity. One leg was buried enough to need help digging out. No injuries. Slab consisted of recent storm snow. Avalanche occurred with the second skier to ski this slope. This was our second run in the area. Our first run on well-supported N facing slopes showed little to no cohesion in the storm snow.
