Comments
Very active out there today, tree bombs, shooting cracks, naturals and human triggered slabs. We skied mellow terrain. Anything over 30-35 degrees was remotely triggered and sliding on 60 cm slabs. We observed large naturals (3.5) running to valley bottom on the steep south slopes across from us. Above 1400 m the snow was a bit lighter (still dense pow) below that was like bottomless wet concrete.
