First flight over the Coast Range between Waddington and Bella Coola this morning, noted numerous deep slab avalanches to size 3. These were primarily E-NE aspects but possibly elsewhere as well. Age appeared all about the same, within the last week likely triggered by last weekend’s heat. Not many people in these areas these days but still interesting to reflect on winter’s layers and may affect decision making during big warmups in the near future. Photos for examples. Also a photo of Waddington’s Angel Glacier.
