North facing Cardiff Bowl naturalled during the storm wall to wall; can't remember seeing that wide of propagation before.
Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>One might be inclined to have connected the dots between areas that naturalled during last Friday's cycle in upper Cardiac area but this left too much overhead hazard for collapse failure as well as uncertainty of previously mentioned repeaters. It'll be terrain for later. Similarly, bailed off a previous skinner that crossed high northerly terrain. Gagne mentioned today "previous tracks mean nothing" and he's right. This even applies to skin tracks. </p> <p> No collapsing or cracking noted on tour in suspect terrain and snow pits point toward low probability high consequence persistent slab problem. This of course may change with impending storm. </p>
Excellent and creamy skiing on sheltered aspects. Dust on crust on southerlies.
