Avalanche

Multiple natural avalanches within the first mile and half on the Quarry Road. Monument slide path put 6 to 8 feet of debris on the road for around 50 feet of road length. Some road cuts also released, but it appears these were spurred by avalanche activity from higher up. Could see some deep crowns in the trees hundreds of feet up the hill. Also, one intentionally skier-triggered avalanche low down on Marble Peak from February 22.
