Avalanche

Wumps then shooting cracks along our fresh skin track preceeded the event. We remote triggered a small slide (R1 D1) about 70 meters away. ECT-11 or 12, on the crown. Weak layer was the interface between 2 distinct windslabs. Interesting that the bed surface slab was about 4in thick (1 finger) sitting on a much softer layer (fist). 39.7880 -105.8730 https://caltopo.com/m/G1DP
