Natural Avalanche - Lionhead

This natural avalanche occured very early in the morning of Jan 24 after only a few inches of snow fell.  This slope is easterly facing around 9000' elevation.  When only a few inches of snow and some wind leads to natural avalanche activity, conditions are very unstable.  Many other slides were seen on similar slopes.  Some recent, some a few days old.  Photo: GNFAC
