The Big Avalanche

You probably heard about this the last few days; on Sunday night a major avalanche begin near the summit of the southeast face of Mt. Hood.  It travelled all the way down into the edge of the Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Area.  Luckily that part of the ski resort (Heather Canyon) was closed at the time.  The ski area has a great write-up and impressive pictures on their blog here.
