So after seeing this we decided to make sure the terrain we skied would be lower angle and managable. But we still triggered FOUR avalanches on the buried surface hoar. They were about 2 feet deep 50-100 ft wide. The avalanches we triggered were on very managable hills. If you were to trigger one of the monsters on say an unmanagable hill it would be bad.
