Observation: Turnagain

Thanks to the crew who sent this photo in and shared this close call with us!
This cornice failed after several minutes of moving around on the ridge and
ultimately took out about 6′ of older snowmachine tracks.

This proves a great reminder of how “loose” cornices are becoming in our region,
particularly late in the day. Cornices deserve a wide berth when traveling
above or below and as this photo shows, can often break much further back on a
ridge than anticipated.
