This avalanche in No Name Bowl seemed to happen in the same time frame as the one I noted in South Monitor Bowl, another thing in common was they were both on the same aspect E-SE. I am also thinking that the weak layer was the same either facets and light density on the surface, or the heat crust with large grain facets underlying it. Once again didn't invetigate the crown decided to ski insted but either way neither slide was breaking out at the ground, they were running an a layer in the upper pack. Interesting to see that this slide took out my skin track and a set of tracks that I put there Sunday.
