Incident Report

Climber was climbing the approach pitch to the Joker climb and transitioned onto a snow slope above the climb. When the climber was half way up the slope (10 m) the snow settled and triggers a sz 1.5 slab avalanche that ran over the climb. The climber was able to move right off of the avalanche to stable terrain. The belayer was able to move out of the way without being buried.
