Quick report
- Red Flags
- Poor Snowpack Structure
- Red Flags Comment
- <p>Red flag structure with NSF (for the future) and shallow wind drifts (for the now).... otherwise very straight-forward hazard.</p>
Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>Shallow drifts confined to the alpine on the leeward side of ridges, gullies, chutes.... the usual suspects. Low end MODERATE hazard.</p>
Facet-lanches entraining snow as they descend the slope are a thing in sustained, steep terrain. The NSF is now buried and preserved and something to keep an eye on.
