Human triggered avalanches continue

Human triggered avalanches continue

A slab avalanche at the Yellowstone Club is indicative of the unstable conditions in the backcountry. This was human triggered on a 34 degree slope. It broke 2' deep, 150' wide and 100' vertical on facets above an crust near the ground. This is the same poor structure we are finding throughout our advisory area.
