Avalanches send tons of snow ripping down steep mountainsides. They follow the jagged avalanche-carved valleys made over millennia. These chutes are stripped bare of vegetation allowing new tender shoots to come up every year, feeding the diverse wildlife in Glacier National Park. This artwork and pattern was produced as Artist-in-Residence at Glacier National Park.
