Utah Avalanche Center

Remotely triggered avalanche from 50-100 feet away. This slope was heavily loaded by south winds Nov 30th and Dec 1st. Crown height was mostly 3 feet but 6-7 feet on the west end of the crown.

Skis and snowmobile tracks were generally sinking down to the 1+ finger hardness layer at 60 cm.

Pit dug in sheltered location. No wind loading at pit site. Plenty of loading occurring elsewhere today.
