Witnessed 5 natural wet loose avalanches near the Uptrack for purple knob. Most were small sluffs starting off the rocks, one was larger, hard to tell but it looked like it could bury a person, and easily knock them over. I'd estimate size 1.5. After turning around we heard a large avalanche, but didn't see it.
