Mt Athabasca standard route ramp size 2 avalanche, ~30-50cm crown, occurred today @ approximately 1300hrs. Roughly same dimensions as the avalanche that occurred on August 28 (see MCR report Aug 28 and 29 -2 fatal) except for running a little further along the flats. A few parties in the area and everyone accounted for.

FYI
