In sintesi

Wind transport triggered two size 2.5 slab avalanches on Bourgeau 7 near Sunshine in the last 24 hrs. These slabs failed on the DH at the ground with crowns approximately 80cm thick and 100m wide. Be very cautious as human triggering is likely. JBW

    Slopes that look inviting for skiing have a wind slab over depth hoar layering. Cracking, whumphing, natural and skier triggered avalanches have been observed. This layer collapses with EASY results. Pick lower angled low consequence terrain.
