None ExperiencedAnother avalanche observation from the Lakes Basin today. Crown was one of the more striking on the skyline. After a snowstorm depositing 20 inches or more it is hard to imagine old avalanche crowns would still be visible. This is an example of one that ran in a previous storm and then repeated in the last 24 hours.
