    Today Mt. Baker Ski Area ski patrol triggered an avalanche outside the ski area boundary using explosives and the results were incredible! This avalanche has a crown on it ranging in depth of 8 to 12 feet! That’s what a big snowy week with fluctuating temperatures can do! Be safe out there folks! 📸-Calvin ShillingtonPhoto and post from PowderchasersThis photo shows to continue to respect the mountains, when we are in their homes it's their rules only. Stay safe out their Washington skiers and riders. Make sure you follow us on our socials!
