A number of natural avalanches occurred on Jan 30. On Jan 31, some snowmobilers were hillclimbing in the same area as the natural avalanches. A snowmobiler was doing some hillclimbing when he triggered another avalanche. He was not caught and was able to out run the avalanche as it came down behind him covering up his track.
