Avalanche

Avalanches near Hancock Pass and west side of Cottonwood Pass. The slope near Hancock Pass has been the site of some past close calls. I'm unsure of the Cottonwood Pass location. The observer reported tracks nearby so a good chance it was snowmobile-triggered. These avalanches occurred on Sunday, February 24 or before.
