Great day to get out and see the latest avalanche cycle. Since many of the local favorite slopes slid, we wanted to post some pictures so everyone could track which ones slide for future reference. The East and North East facing slopes are the only ones we saw with any avalanche activity
The 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th sister slide in upper Cottonwood canyon as well as the southern end of Morning Glory. Below are pictures of the slides on the Sisters
Here is another shot of the slide in Rock Bowl. It was surprising to see how far the avalanche traveled up the skiers left wall.
Many of the East facing slopes around the lake slid.
A medium size slab broke loose on the South Magog Ridge.
