Avalanche

Lake A avalanche path ran full path and covered the closed road with avalanche debris. This is not a frequent event. Mountain Boy Peak also had a recent avalanche. This was relatively small for the big east face. It looks like it may have been triggered by cornice fall and then stepped down to a March layer midslope.
