Comments

AST 2 at Bullmoose today, Stuck to the roads today due to high avalanche danger.

Riding was amazing, 60+cm storm snow. Variable HST due to wind transportation.

While stopped across windfall creek, we witnessed a naturally triggered avalanche on Mt. Crum, size 2.5+.

Warm day, snowpack starting to set up later on in the afternoon, +1°C when we got back to the trucks.

Lots of shooting cracks and small sluffs while riding the ditches.
