Middle Creek

Obs from Friday and Saturday around middle creek area. Warm temps on Friday coupled with the new snow produced widespread natural avalanches on all aspects, we saw some crowns (+-30cm deep) on lee features but most avalanches were point releases starting in the steeps or from tree bombs. We found moist wet snow to 1300m, the greenhouse effect was strong with temps in the sun approx +5 degrees and light winds. We saw no evidence of the surface hoar instability in our pits or in the surrounding terrain.
