Quick Observation
Between 1300 and 1700, we heard two large avalanches from the Balfour Wall bench. We did not see debris anywhere in eyesight. Snow leading up to Balfour was 10-20cm of powder, sitting on a surface-level crust. Upon driving out of Icefields, we witnessed evidence of a slab avalanche on the west facing aspect of the prominence above Waterfowl Lake (picture provided).
