  • We met the party who triggered the slide coming out of the bowl and talked to them.  The four tracks on the right are straight south facing, but the lone skier on the left took a slightly southeasterly aspect, which was underlain with weak depth hoar.  He remotely triggered the avalanche on one of the last turns we can see.  His friends yelled and he scooted off to his left (the traverssing track we see). Toledo Bowl, a backcountry area near Alta, Utah.

  • I was able to intentionally and easily trigger this huge avalanche in East Monitor along the Park City ridgeline, Utah.  I was standing above where my wife is now  and sanding on a 15 degree slope and hanging onto a tree.  I jumped on the slope, which collapsed the very fragile layer of depth hoar and propagatated the fracture onto the steeper slope below me.  My wife Susi came down to the tree after the avalanche occurred, where she watched me as I examined the fracture line of the avalanche.  It is usually quite safe to examine fracture lines because all the energy has been released.
