Gold Hill 1: It was tuff to tell if this slide was a first on this slope or if this was a repeater. It appeared to be triggered by a snowmobile on a small rock band as seen from the pic below.
Gold Hill 2: This slide appears to be a few days older. Much larger than the first... Depth, vertical drop, and trigger are unknown. It appears to have released on the persistent weak layer, hard slab and connected.
