Vail & Summit County

Avalanche

The slide was skier triggered on a slope with a 32 degree average. In addition, the slope is west facing at an elevation of approximately 10,300 feet. We did not make it to the top where the crown was, but looked to be about 3 feet in depth. The slide ran approximately 100 yards, and stopped in some smaller trees. The slide was approximately 15-20 yards in width. SS-ASu, R2-D2.
