We could see this fairly fresh looking slide from the Franklin Basin Rd that probably occurred last weekend (1-27 or 28). There were also some recent sled tracks in the area, so this may have been remotely triggered.
We checked out the avalanche on 2-3-24. It would have been a dangerous avalanche to get caught in because it ran out through trees
