Comments
Noticed some storm slab avalanches in steeper leeward slopes.
Most where pretty small in the start but ran fairly far, some up to 500ft.
They were breaking close to the old snow new snow interface. There seemed to be a density change around the ground from the handpits we dug.
Overall dense surfy conditions existed. Watch out for the Jackelopes.
