Gunnison

Avalanche

Crested Butte Avalanche Center · Jan 30, 2014 · Gunnison

Started out warm and graupeling, quick blast of wind and then started vomiting with zero wind.

6-8 inches at start, 12-14 inches when done. Ski pen 10 inches, somewhat supportive layer 12 or so inches down but would fail when stomping turns.

Cracking on all rolls while skiing, one release on the steepest roll, storm slab is all that moved.
