We observed a sled triggered avalanche (Size 2+) in the Holzworth/Bullmoose riding area. The avalanche occurred yesterday. We witnessed a number of fresh natural avalanches below cornices today that resulted in slab propagations. All in all, there was a lot of avalanche activity, due to warm temps and sled on convex and large, steep exposed faces and chutes. We conducted snowpack tests and found a hard slab triggerring in the early Moderate range 55cm deep. We attached some photos to show the sleds triggering this same 55cm deep slab on sidehill cut. Be careful out there!
