Notes

From email 2/26/23: "I had heard a rumor from snowmobilers that there was a human triggered avalanche on Lionhead on Thursday the 23rd.  While in Taylor Fork yesterday, we ran into one of the individuals that was a part of the incident.... he and a buddy were climbing together and he uncovered a rock that his buddy then hit.  While the first rider continued to climb he triggered a slide, and it partially buried the second rider.  He was able to deploy his airbag, but was carried approximately 100 yds down slope where he was buried.  He was quickly found by other members of his group.
