Skied up to the plateau toward Paddy's Peak, but limited visibility prevented us from venturing further than the moraines below the peak. We returned to the mellow treed slopes west of the road on its final climb to the plateau. Had some good runs with powder higher up, and heavier wetter snow closer to the creek (~300m lower). Started up for our second run when we heard the remotely triggered avalanche and visually confirmed it (and the safety of the skiers) through poor visibility across the valley. Tried to take some photos, but the visibility was quite limited (attached one after some enhancing; note skiers checking out the debris from the visible rock moraine at the lower righthand side of the slide path for scale). On our NE ~20-25deg slope we had moderate CT results at 15cm (storm snow interface) and hard results at 25cm (crust). Glad all were ok, and making good terrain choices that resulted in no one getting caught.
