Avalanche

While skiing the gentle ridge on SE face of Elly, noticed 2 good size avalanches that broke from the cornice of South ridge of Elly. One of the slides ran close to 700’ to runout below. From about 9000 to 8400. It appeared these happened yesterday or Saturday. There was a set of tracks on south ridge above the release that potentially initiated the slides,. Skiing further down the gentle ridge I came across a 3rd avalanche at 8500 on the ridge SE aspect
