Avalanche: Mill D North

A signifigant amount of cracking and collapsing immediately off of the skin track. The majority of the cracking went from tree to tree, but on some of the more open slopes it was propagating a longer distance and cracking over 150 feet from where it was initiated. Pics 1-5 Eastern slopes of tom's hill. If you look closely you can see cracks above the crown.

It had occured on 1/21/12 as there was snow filling in portions of the bed surface. The slope had slid through some aspens and mature evergreens Pics 7-8
