With a brief moment of visibility, saw a natural avalanche in the corner pocket of Reynolds Peak, look to be cornice triggered with a crown around 8 to 10 inches deep, most likely it was the denser snow from last night and this morning failing on the lighter density snow from Saturday. It left a decent pile of debris in the trees below and ran about 2/3 track. It was a tough day for decent photos but you can see the crown under the cornice line and the debris in the trees.
