Aspen

Avalanche

A notable avalanche occurred sometime between April 2 in the afternoon and April 3 before 10:00 A.M. The avalanche has multiple crowns stepping down to the ground and put debris about a hundred feet into dense trees snapping a few small trees and bending many fully grown trees as well as breaking many of branches. This avalanche was large relative to the path (R4), as it broke across the entire terrain feature and quickly stepped down to the ground and damaged fully grown trees that don't appear to have any obvious avalanche scars without looking at their tree rings, and produced enough destructive force to bury injure or kill a person (D2.5).
