Avalanche

Multiple windslab avalanches up to D2 observed on NE aspects above treeline- Ptarmigan Fingers, Tyndall Couloir, and Thatchtop-Powell Icefield. Specific terrain- steep, wind loaded, and already snow covered. The start zones for all three were mid-slope, due to the severity of Saturday's overnight winds.
