One of two natural avalanches observed today in Talking Mountain Cirque. Slide was observed from a far distance from the summit of Pre Laurel Peak. Depth and size of the slide are estimated from a distance. Starting zone is steep, 35 to 40 degrees. The slide most likely occurred on Thursday night or possibly during the day time.
