This is a slide I triggerred on Valentine's Day, 2005. The crown was 3' deep, ~100 yards wide, and the slide ran for 1000' vertical through sparse trees. NW aspect ~8700' elevation. This is the biggest slide I have experienced firsthand. Another slide I triggered on the same ridge farther east, from a few days earlier in this same storm cycle can be found here: http://www.avalanche.org/~uac/BRAIC/MillvillePeak2-11-05_000.htm
the slide ran on the obvious path in the upper right of this photo.
