Comments
This is yet another big avalanche that ripped out, likely sometime this weekend. I found it interesting because of its aspect, mostly East with a touch of South, as the sunshine made evident. Not as south as the big avy on the face of Raymond, but similar enough in aspect and elevation. Something to think about as the danger trends down, especially on more southerly aspects.
