You’ve gotta love UKC comments!
Most definitely an avalanche - SS-ASu-D1.5/R2-S if you want to be technical. 20cm crown wall about 15-20m wide, debris run of around 100m, soft wind-slab layer releasing over an older snow layer, not to ground. Enough to take me 50m or so at speed (through lots of quite hard rocks). The grass sticking through was everywhere that wasn’t windloaded, not where the slide was. The skiing was pretty rubbish everywhere but it was a nice day to be out.
The snows pretty much all gone now though if anyone was wondering.
