Comments
10-15cm of overnight snow at the start of the Middle Fork of White River. Ski travel was from 1400m-2700m. The new snow was needed down low and on road access. Supportive crust below new snow. The alpine had shed on all aspects. There was some debris navigation hiding under storm snow. Strong relentless W-SW wind at ridge top. Snow transport was occurring. No signs of instability and storm snow was holding nicely to crust on descent.
Challenging access currently… roads blocked by avalanche debris that we found this weekend were north end of Blackfoot FSR, east fork of White River FSR and a side FSR off Middle Fork.
