We had a remote triggered avalanche from a group standing on the ridge of main shingle mill drainage in Cascade today at 12:30. The party on the ridge felt the settlement which remotely triggered the avalanche on the NE aspect at 10,000'. Averaged 1-3 feet deep, 100' wide, and ran 600 feet. Most interesting feature was that the slab stepped down mid-slope up to 5 feet deep. The photo with the ski poles is from the step down crown line. We might be seeing a start of things to come as we are developing the mid-pack slab over the basal facets. We'll see what these next few storms bring. I have a feeling that we will tip the balance soon in the Cascade zone, and the core will not be far behind...
