Mount Washington - Avalanche
Photos from Hermit Lake shelters taken 4/14/2007. Two avalanches struck just after noon as hundreds of hikers watched from the Hermit Lake Shelters. The first occurred just to the right of the Christmas Tree in the Lower Snowfield, the second larger slide happened in Hillmans Highway when at least 6 people were in the path. Both slides occurred in moderate to considerable avalanche ratings. Only one person is known to be injured.
