Avalanche
About 250 feet across at widest point. Crown was near ridgeline so possible cornice fall trigger. Ran full length if slope (vertical drop about 500+ feet). Part of debris pile reached flat part of valley floor (!!!). Didn't measure crown, but a couple slab blocks in debris pile appeared to be about 40-50cm in depth.
