Recent Avalanches, Heavy Snowfall, Wind Loading, Cracking, Collapsing, Poor Snowpack Structure
Red Flags Comment
<p>Lots of snow moving around with sensitive on most slopes. The wind was also filling in all the recent start zones, smoothing out and burying the debris piles. Almost no crowns from the previous day's slides were visible. Found touchy fast moving wind slabs on the test slopes I checked out at 8500' NE. Also got quite a bit of collapsing still when I'd get into less traveled terrain. </p>

Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p>Wind was blowing pretty strong above 7500' all day. Mostly from the North West but also anywhere from west through south at different times and locations throughout the day. </p> <p>Fresh wind slabs forming on faceted bed surfaces from Wednesday's slides. </p> <p> </p>
