Quick report
An active day on Cody Peak! Small skier triggered avalanches happened on No Shadows, Four Shadows, and Triple Cliffs, with more significant events occurring on Pucker Face and Powder 8's. All slides were soft slabs with depths up to two feet.
Skier's R side of Pucker Face was triggered by a snowboarder who was caught and carried over a significant cliff. Rider was able to self-extricate and was miraculously uninjured.
Powder 8's was triggered by the second skier in a group of 4. Skier was able to stay on his feet and was not caught or carried, skied out on the bed surface. This event was significant enough to trigger a response from the JHSP who made quick contact with the party who triggered the slide and proceeded to do a beacon search through the debris to clear the scene.
