Heard about this avalanche from the Sundance Ski Patrol on Monday, April 11th. It's likely that it ran sometime during the storm on either 4/9 or early morning 4/10 from a natural cornice drop. HS-N-R3-D4-O running on facets above the upper layer of the MLK crust from 1/16. Crown was 6'+ deep in places. A second rain crust still exists below the bed surface with 122cm of snow remaining to the ground. This is another repeater that has avalanched 3 times already this season.
