Quick report

Natural releases on most slopes and aspects from warming.

Avalanche

Avalanche Dragon: (Rapid) warming. Self-evident naturals with wide crowns on multiple slopes along our tour from Crystal Lakes back in Silver Basin. Ended day at Gun Barrel. Lots of naturals seen. Triggered a hang-fire soft-slab, ran 40’ or so, taken for a ride, no burial. Went into the day not expecting much danger which clouded judgement of evident danger (signs of other avys). Human Factor: Complacency.
