Spotted this natural avalanche while heading down the Mirror Lake Highway.
This is another natural avalanche off Kletting Peak, but it is a west aspect and looks some what recent? I'm sure the strong and steady west and northwest winds have overloaded many of these areas that are shallow, rocky and have weak snow near the ground.
