Amazing Avalanche Footage from Colorado: “Out of Ophrica”

“Out Of Ophrica” is one of the most beautiful and amazing avalanches videos of all time. Just watched this classic for the first time in a few years. Shot during a heli-bombing mission in 2004 in Ophir, Colorado. – Chris Davenport

This avalanche footage from Ophir, Colorado is humbling.  An avy this big will vaporize most anything in it’s path.  This is what is referred to as an unsurvivable avalanche.
