Quick report

Strong sun and mild temperatures mean normally protected slopes have failed. Keep an eye on changing snow conditions throughout climbs and be aware of any periods when the sun starts baking the snow.

Avalanche

Numerous wet loose slides coming down from the east and north facing slopes of Heliotrope towards Colfax. One large cornice collapse and remotely triggered snow from above also triggered a larger wet loose above the common climbing routes (see second photo). Largest one slid approximately 500’ feet and crossed the high CD route. Be aware of snow above you.
