It looked like people got a little air under their boards today, testing the stability on several steep slopes and under cliff bands. Considering this action, we noticed only a small wind slab avalanche triggered by a rider who jumped off the cliffs above the Magog Meadow.
We could see evidence of numerous natural loose and a few soft slab avalanches of storm snow in steep terrain above about 8200 feet in elevation.
