A likely natural avalanche in Upper Days in Days Fork. This avalanche was reported to the UAC (photo courtesy of Danny Woodbury) and most likely it ran early in the morning on Friday, January 3.

There is an adjacent slide in Two Dogs, and it is possible one of these avalanches sympathetically triggered the other.

Dimensions are estimates.
