Comments

Skied Horn Dog on Sunday. Reached the top of the line at 11 am, by then the sun was already quite strong. Very top skied amazing, followed by wet powder in the upper mid part of the line. The gullies in the bottom were filled with avy debris; some of it covered by the new snow, some of it fresher than that. Saw and heard multiple size 1-2 naturals, presumably triggered by warming rocks.
