Looks like this R2 D2.5 ran sometime this week, probably associated with the southerly wind event. Couldn't see a crown. Didn't see much other activity throughout the range on today's flight, with no visible evidence of avalanches from the past week besides this one on South Mountain.

South Mountain, wind loading of North Aspects evident.

Snowmachine tracks, SE facing slope near La Sal Pass.

Cross loaded gully off of Tukno.
