Foglietta North Avalanche 5 Jan 2015

Why in the world would the group leader stop everyone in the middle of the line? They were sitting ducks! In fact the furthest guy on skiers right literally tried to duck dive the wave of snow. Apparently there were more of the group all the way at the bottom about 1km away who assisted in the rescuer with camera man and his buddy.

Windloaded facets. I like to think when a similar condition is known to exist here that NWAC is all over it with a HIGH rating. That video is really something.

The original video link has been taken down,  here is an alternate that also includes a discussion.
