Avalanche Debris in Playground

From an email: "We did observe a natural slide at around 8300ft that failed on the high pressure facets that formed prior to these last two shots of snow. It appears that it was triggered by a slough from steeper, rocky terrain above, the crown was about 14 inches deep and around 50ft wide, in complex rocky terrain. The debris pile was approx. 200cm deep, plenty deep to bury a person." Photo: A. Pohl
