Was out in Lucille with a group and saw 3 natural avalanches in the alpine of storm slabs on Lee slopes. Little later in the Day watch some one pull a small avalanche out of a similar aspect slope. No one was caught in it. The snowpack was interesting in the zone, ECTP 4 down 20cm and ECTP 12 down 35 on the December Surface Hoar layer. The bottom 50cm is very faceted really giving the snowpack a very upside down look and feel.
