One of four different avalanches that a party in Humpy Creek triggered. Other avalanches were more difficult to photograph due to overhead hazard. Didn’t make contact with these folks so hopefully they have their own submission, at this point in their travels they were on public land. Notably, this was the same chute where a sled’s near miss was observed mid December.
