Avalanche

Brooklyn Path on west side of Aspen Mtn. ran twice and hit the road between Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning. Brooklyn is a lightly gladed, west facing path at 11,300'. It ran once on Monday afternoon, and then again much larger either that night, or early the next morning (Tuesday 1/10). Not many details of the Monday afternoon slide, but the Tuesday morning one (observed before 7:00am) had an 18" crown and left 8' of debris on the road.
