Comments
The conditions went from what felt like moderate/considerable to high very fast. We didn’t see any evidence of human triggered/natural slides or shooting cracks/whumphs earlier in the day. At around 2, it started feeling warm and conditions changed quite quickly and we started seeing long shooting cracks (10-20m) and sz. 0.5-1.5 avalanches going naturally everywhere.
