| episode_narrative | An unusually long and warm dry period in early December resulted in an unstable snowpack with avalanche potential. |
| event_narrative | A snowmobiler who was riding in the mountains at the 11,250 foot level north of Crested Butte triggered an avalanche which swept him and his snowmobile down slope about 50 feet. The snowmobiler was fully buried under 1 to 2 feet of snow and his snowmobile was partially buried, with only part of the ski and part of the front of the snowmobile visible at the surface. Four other snowmobilers from his group quickly came to his aid and extricated him and eventually his snowmobile. The avalanche broke approximately 3.5 feet deep, was 175 feet wide, and ran 60 to 75 vertical feet. |
