Comments
Details are a bit limited and we're not sure who reported this avalanche, but we're thankful for the report and glad nobody was caught in it. We'll update this report if we get more info...
"Sorry for the late text. Millville ripped out on us today. Nobody was caught or carried. I noticed the snow wrinkling behind me when I was making a toe side turn and was alerted by a spotter on the bottom on my radio a .5 second after. Failed on the crust from the warm weather last week and had multiple crowns as it moved down the mountain."
