Avalanche
Eastern aspect, 13,500 for the primary and secondary at 13,000’. What looked like a wind slab released on the middle of the East face of Torreys(at the bottom of the direct route) and dropped down to the the lower part of the dead dog Couloir and caused a larger avalanche. At the same elevation but further north at a similar elevation and aspect another avalanche released. The Dead dog slide was perhaps 100 meters wide and 3+ feet deep; we didn’t hang around to find out. The similar slide further north was about have those dimensions. We guessed both ran during the night or early morning.
