- <p>More significant of a storm than expected. Naturals noted on Airplane Peak, Hogum's Hogback...with skier triggered slide (size1) on LSuperior. Other slides from today and yesterday well documented in the other observations. </p>
Repeaters (Pointy Peak, Reynolds, Hogum's Hogback ENE (likely)), possibly West Monitor) add extra concern for other previously avalanched terrain for the coming days and coming storm. Likely the inch+ of SWE from yesterday pulled some of the old P-Slabs from dormancy.
Mostly on a big game sight-seeing tour today to look into Hogum, Maybird, Red Pine (though couldn't see the Lake Shot or east facing terrain), and across the street into the south facing couloirs. Only significant natural observed in Hogum was Airplane Peak (just west of Pfeifferhorn).
Snowpack
About 12" settled new from Feb 15 storm. Extensive wind damage from Valentine's day noted beneath. A few mms of cold snow above today's sun crusts.....keep an eye on these few millimeters ahead of the next storm. Total depths at 10k in Maybird 120cm, some more, some less.
