Human Triggered Avalanches - Beehive Basin

Human Triggered Avalanches - Beehive Basin

These human triggered slides occurred on a west facing slope in Beehive Basin.  Both slides were remotely triggered, indicating very unstable conditions.  This area had a shallow and weak snowpack prior to last week's heavy snowfall.  This poor structure is having trouble supproting the most recent load.
