Comments
We skied several laps in the middle section of lookers right avalanche path on Mount Tecumseh. Above the snowmobile tracks but below the main avalanche path. I was able to trigger a small size 1 from a ski cut on a small convex roll feature. We saw evidence of small natural slides and cracks that were covered in yesterday’s snow on the South side of the avalanche path up on the steeper slopes above. We also saw a fresh drift/cornice failure that did not run, in the steep gully on lookers right.
