Video: Huge Spring Slide at European Resort

Share on Social

We've been unable to find out exactly where this huge slide took place, but one thing is for sure: That's a big, heavy load of snow sloughing down the slope. It's hard to tell from the video if anyone was caught in the slide, but the people in the background running away indicate that it was too close for comfort.

Even without new snow, weak layers in the snowpack can lead to large avalanches, so skiers and riders should stay cautious even in the absence of obvious red flags. As the spring season gets started and people look towards exposed and consequential lines it's especially important to stay aware of what's happening above and below you.
