Quick report
One notable persistent slab avalanche in the upper reaches of Reese Creek. Steep, north facing trees/rocks. The Northern Bridgers have a highly varied snowpack right now. Most of the big bowls still have quite a bit of snow that's falling apart quickly. Simultaneously many slopes are either wind stripped and bare or have ribbons of very dense consolidated snow. Solar aspects are melting out super fast. And shaded northerlies, especially in the trees, still have dry weak layers hidden under the crust.

Natural persistent slab avalanche in the trees of upper Reese Creek. Looked to be 2-3 days old. Lurking dry snow dragons are still out there. Small, but highly consequential avalanche.
