I don't know the story... Looks like skier (or rider) triggered as I could see both types of tracks entering this small avalanche from the top.
Remember, the backside of Beaver Mt. is the backcountry. You need to carry and practice with a beacon, probe, and shovel, and practice good backcountry travel protocols by only exposing one person at a time to a steep slope and going with a group or at least a partner.
Didn't dare to ride in steep terrain, but I triggered some nice, pretty deep shooting cracks in stiff drifts up higher on the mountain.
