Comments
"Pretty big avalanche at Boss Canyon at Franklin Basin today. My buddy was at the very tippy top sidehilling coming from the next canyon over. He saw it start cracking around him, jumped off, and it took his sled, but he stayed at the top of his mountain. Super lucky."

Thanks to Micheal Davis and Santiago Gonzalez for the great pics and for making the effort to go check this avalanche out.
