Quick Observation

While skiing from Bourgeau Meadows over to Healey Pass we remote triggered a large avalanche off the ridge, location of avalanche 51.10434, -115.82293. The avalanche was remote triggered from approx. 100m away on a bench. We couldn’t see how large the avalanche was initially, but as we traversed through we could see that the crown was about 300 m wide, and up to 100cm deep. When we skied out Healey Pass and were able to see that the avalanche was size ~2.5 maybe larger. Debris was about 150 m from the Healey Pass trail. There were a number other large avalanches observed from 1.5-2.5.
