Cornice triggered avalanche - Beehive Basin 16 Nov 17

Cornices in Beehive basin were growing in size and sensitivity throughout the day. This cornice failed naturally which triggered as small wind slab on the slope below. With more snow and wind in the forecast, cornices and wind slabs will remain an ongoing problem. Photo: G. Antonioli
