Avalanche

ATL HS E aspect U R2D2; first treeless bowl on Baldy A's north ridge; looked new - crown visible and rock visible in the start zone. Refrigerator+ size deposition visible from across valley. Had skinned along the ridge above the start zone earlier in the day and didn't notice it on the way up... possible we triggered it remotely.
