Comments

Had a great day! Observed a fair size storm snow point release on the way into table top (N/E aspect, see image 3). It has quite wide propagation however the debris was soft and boot deep at most. Rode some sweet steeps on the N/E and S/W aspects in the area. Found 25 cm of WICKED POW not bonding well to a pretty consistent slab sitting on some facets at ground. Spotters, one rider at a time, sluff management in full effect! White Pass delivering the goods!
