Check out this video from the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure of a huge controlled avalanche this week at the Lanark Snowshed. Crews were triggering the Lanark Avalanche Path, but it resulted in a cascade that caused the Twin Path to avalanche at the same time:
HUGE avalanche control on #BCHwy1 today. The control was necessary to reduce the snow load in the Lanark snowshed area. Pretty dramatic… Watch: pic.twitter.com/zvwu5lNzzW
