This avalanche is the third slide in this area since the weekend. I observed it while looking for a reported slide to the UAC. It has all the same characteristics as the other two, it was less than half a mile from the other avalanche and appears to have been snowmobile triggered as well. Though not a widespread hazard, but all the factors are there for possibly more of these pockets to happen.
