Several natural avalanches seen in Moonlight area of Mineral. While most were fairly small and short running, one appeared to have released from the upper head wall that was fairly substantial. Estimated 200-300 ft wide running 800-1000 feet. Depth unknown as crown was in the clouds. Releasd sometime between our 2nd and 3rd lap in the area probably around noon. A lot of collapsing and cracking in the area both ascending and descending.
no great picture with vis but drew up a screenshot of avalanches seen.
Great reminder to be aware of steep slopes above and connected to what you are skiing.
