Report of an avalanche on the east side of Twin Lakes Pass. The skier who reported it was not sure how it was triggered. They watched a party ski the slope without incident. Then, they skied the adjacent slope and when they got to the bottom, they noticed the avalanche had occurred. It appeared to be a wind slab 1-1.5' deep and 100' wide. No other details available.
