Avalanche Conditions

Saw this on my way by today, appears to be from the last 24hrs, not related to control work so a natural release. You can see it ran well below the tree-line and into a lot of bush. Please don't underestimate the potential run length of avalanches at this time. This one ran from about 2130m to 1280m (850m or 2800ft total) and over 1.5km in distance.
