From FB message: "Two snowmobiler triggered avalanches in Southern Madison. Riders did not have beacons or rescue equipment. Riders made it out safe luckily."
We saw this today after it happened. Looked like a snowmobile triggered it. I believe it is mostly south facing. Thanks.
We saw two recent shallow wind slab avalanches. No recent slides breaking deeper.
This one at NE 9000'
