Comments
Reports of sled triggered size 1 and 2 avalanches in Bijoux rising area as well as natural avalanche cycle occurring in the Pine Bowl area also in Bijoux snowmobile area. Persistent weak layer of buried surface hoar and a lot of new snow is leading to major natural and human triggered avalanche cycle. Be careful out there!
