Accidental skier triggered avalanche going through the rock band. Skier was caught and carried about 150-200’ but not buried, no significant injuries and able to self extricate. This appeared to fail on storm slab that had shown CT12Q2 at 30cm earlier in the day. Ski was lost and not found. Crown estimated 8-12”, 50’ wide, and ran 150-200’. Poor light for the photos makes it difficult to see the crown well.
