Comments
Trudged our way up 2000 today through the new storm snow. 150cm+ at 1700m. The top 10cm was very reactive. We saw some natural avalanches off the headwall in Fish Bowl.
While skinning up in the trees, we had a shooting crack propagate out 25m+ over a convex feature over 35 degrees. The crack triggered a remote slide below.
Took it very mellow & bashed a ton of alders. Stay safe out there.
