Alta Avalanches
10.12.07 (1:02 pm) [edit]
This avalanche and video was made on Sunday March 4. Due ot the unique weather conditions this year here this slide took almost the entrie snowpack to the ground, known as a depthoar slide. This is common in the Rocky Mountains due to dry air and extended cold weather conditions. Note the area below and around the slide are commonly skied but the area above is only open 10-20 days a year. What slid is Baldy Shoulder.
