Avalanche

We noticed significant crowns across the valley from where we were. While skiing over to help we sympathetically triggered another size 2, which broke 30cm deep and propagated 400m wide, which in turn sympathetically triggered a 5th size 2 avalanche that broke 1.5m deep and ran onto the lake. measure the runout angle at 21 deg.
