Avalanche

Two skier-trigger avalanches at the currently unopened Aspen Highland ski area on Sunday 11.25.18. The first avalanche was triggered from lower on the slab. East-facing slope at 11,600. The second avalanche was triggered on a East northeast-facing slope at 10,900 ft. Good reminder that closed avalanche terrain at the ski areas should be treated as backcountry. 11.2.18
