Footage of a "planned" man-made avalanche on Ajax Peak in Colorado, USA.
The video, filmed on January 26, shows the snow churning down the mountainside after explosives were dropped from a helicopter to trigger the avalanche.
According to the filmer, "this work is performed most years so an avalanche does not occur at an unplanned time when people are present on the road below."
