Quick report

A thin refreeze (~10cm) provided supportive travel this morning until trapdoor conditions developed on easterly-facing terrain by 9:30 or 10, at which point we observed a pair of large, wet avalanches run off Schuylkill Ridge.   It's looking more and more like wet armageddon, with many wet slides to the ground, roads melting out to dirt, runnels and suncups on southerlies, etc. We found some good "summer corn" turns on a high, southeast facing slope around 10  a.m.

A noticeable inversion this morning, with warmer temps as we gained elevation on snowmobile. Everything felt hot on our way home.

Didn't see this avalanche yesterday or this morning on my way into town with good views, so guessing it ran today.
