Northern San Juan

Remote triggered avalanche from a ridgeline. Estimate I was 75-100 feet from the highest failure point of the slide.

Partly cloiudy, ~20F, light W/SW

18-20 inches fell over a roughly 48 hour period with wind depositon pockets up to 3 ft thick. The snowpack is seemingly touchy on multiple aspects and at different elevations. Previous melt-freeze crusts formed beneath the recent snowfall vary in strength, as some are collapsible over well developed facets below and some are supportive to ski and even boot pen.
