When spring rolls around every year, the snowpack in the mountains, for the most part, begins to consolidate. Skiers can get complacent, believing avalanches won’t take place until winter returns later in the year.

And just take a look at how much snow is being moved down the mountain. As always, stay safe out there, skiers.
