Always interesting to watch slide videos on terrain that is clearly avalanche terrain (e.g., slope angle, some visible wind-loading on the top), but is not “gnar” terrain (e.g., huge bowl above tree line). This just shows that avalanche terrain can exist really at any elevation on a smaller pocket of tree-less slope.
Also, high-marking is a ridiculously good way to load a slope….
The lack of updates on this site is appalling…..
