Seward Highway avalanche mitigation work

Large avalanche was triggered on the morning of Friday 2-15-13 with explosives.
The avalanche had enough energy to bury the railroad tracks, travel across the
pond and put debris onto the Seward Highway. This result represents a worst
case scenario – if deeper weak layers are triggered, we could see large avalanches.
