Small skier-triggered avalanche. Triggered while skinning up to the Asulkan Hut. First skier laid the skin track through the small gully directly below the hut, above the pyramid. Second skier triggered a size 1 slab (30 cm deep and 10 m wide) which propagated up to about 10 m above the skin track. Very heavy wind loading in the area and fresh snow. Conditions didn't allow for pictures of the slab.
