Avalanches at Lionhead
Date
On Saturday (12/28) we saw a small avalanche along Lionhead Ridge while riding (photo).
From the highway, with binoculars, we also saw a larger avalanche north of Lionhead Ridge in a large lower elevation steep meadow. This one appeared 1-2' deep and 150-200' wide, possibly slightly wind-loaded, but not a heavily/typical wind-loaded slope.
We also got a vague report of a rider who was partially buried with their sled.
