3 separate avalanches of varying size depth. 2 snowmachine triggered slides on shaded W/NW aspects in the southern widowmaker ridge line. One larger,deep and longer running skier triggered slide from the top of widowmaker towards the gully corridor to get to juniors. Crown varied from 1-3’ with possible cornice collapse from skier entering slope. Surprisingly fast and ran to the common uptrack in the gully that leads to Juniors. Skier was able to get off the slide path quickly near the top of crown.
No one caught or carried. All members were able to snowmachine/ ski out of slide path.
