Avalanche Activity:
2nd hand account of one of the slide paths up Lost Horse Creek running full path across the road and into the creek taking mature trees with it at approximately 5:00 p.m. Sunday 2/21. Sounds like the entire slope broke across the ridgeline and ran full path. Rock was exposed on the upper slope so it sounds like it possibly stepped down to the ground. As stated this is a second hand account so I was not present but wanted to report. It sounds like debris pile was deep and covered the entire historic run out zone. Good warning to stay out of run out zones with this rapid warming and forecasted heavy load of snow headed our way.
