Avalanche S. Madison Range

Avalanche S. Madison Range

This natural avalanche was spotted by skiers in the south end of the Southern Madison Range.  The weight of new snow this week has exposed slopes that contain weak facets near the ground.  While these facets do not appear to be a widespread problem, they do exists on some slopes especially ones with a notherly aspect.  Photo: A Whitmore
