Avalanche

One skier went for a short slide until hitting flat spot, if it had been a longer slope with no flat spot this could have been a lot bigger. Triggered while skinning, heard a large whumpf and then slope above skier let go with crown being approx 10-15 m up slope of skier upon initiation. Propagated 30-40 meters across, varying crown height of 30-45 cm on a lee slope.
