In a day out around Mt Black Prince and Purple Knob, our party observed multiple dry loose avalanches starting in the high alpine. We were in the area from about 10:30-1pm, and started hearing/seeing activity with the arrival of snowfall around 11:30am. Start zones we observed were around 2500M along the E aspect of the Mt Black Prince ridge. We did not observe any activity triggered on lower slopes by falling snow.
