Wet loose avalanche that likely ran during the last system (2/20) several days ago on a steep road bank. Potentially skier triggered with resemblance of a track in/out and skintract up adjacent slope but too difficult to tell for certain.

Warmer temperatures today with rollerballing on most slopes and snow surface dampening up but did not see any larger releases in this elevation band.
