Avalanche

We saw numerous avalanches heading up the Connaught Creek drainage today, most between size 2-2.5. The most notable one we saw was this one out of the north bowl of Cheops (between STS and Nikki’s Notch). Couldn’t see the start zone super well, but big chunks of cornice still in the debris. The debris turned the corner in the valley and came within 10m of the standard uptrack.
