Avalanche
R3 D3.5 - East facing in start zone. Started just below ridge and ran to the bench just short of Conundrum Creek. Wind Slab seems the likely culprit. Crown is roughly 250m wide and ran ~1.25 miles over 3,300 feet. Pointer and Middle Finger ran entirely. Portions of Thumb and Ring ran with the other two but not to full width. There is no evidence of slides in Pinky. Slid sometime overnight 12/22 or early morning 12/23. There is also a slide in South Highlands Bowl from the saddle between Highland Peak and Point 12,499 but I can not see how far it ran.
