Mt. Blackmore Area Avalanche

Mt. Blackmore Area Avalanche

A skier triggered this avalanche on his way back to the Mt. Blackmore trailhead.  It broke on a NE facing, 38 degree slope.  The skier was able to stop himself before getting strained through trees lower on the slope. The avalanche was 1.5 feet deep, 90 feet wide and ran for a few hundred feet.
