Nice day out there. Heli skiers were in the area tracking out the sled runs. Lots of remotes down to January hoar on convex features below tree line while sledding around. Couple skier triggered remotes above treeline, pictured as well. Still very touchy. My observations are: Below tree line, north facing convexities have been consistently going remote on January hoar all weekend. Skied a south east aspect below treeline nearby on Sunday, and saw no signs of instability.
