We took the standard skin track up Tincan from the main parking lot. Topped out just above tree line. Intermittent sunshine and snow showers throughout the day. New snow from the night before started dry and low density, becoming wetter and denser through the day.

Skier triggered avalanche in Common Bowl. It is unknown if the skier was caught and carried, but we saw the two skiers involved continue down the slope after—assumed it was uneventful. Soft slab propagated out from a slight slope break. Appeared to break between the old snow/storm slab interface, roughly 100ft wide and ran the length of the remaining slope (~200ft).
