Avalanche Occurrence

Observer:

Occurrence Date:

Mar 16, 2022 ()

Location:

Gunsight Chutes

Comments:

Three of the main Gunsight Chutes produced persistent slab avalanches. 2 others did not, despite plenty of skier testing. All three slides were remotely triggered from the ridgeline, in some cases after a cornice had been dropped on the slope.

One other small wind slab was also triggered.
