- Red Flags Comment
- <p>Increasing winds should bump the hazard for fresh wind drifts along the ridge lines. Only cracking within the newer snow and some shallow minor wind drifts today. </p>
Visibility was fairly limited today, but may have spotted a recent avalanche on the north side of Gold Hill. There is a rocky area in this location that typically has weak sugary snow and this slope is often times triggered from the bottom. Debris will usually stack up on a bench making for a bad terrain trap.
Good snow conditions, but visibility was somewhat limited today.
Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>Slides continue to be triggered in shallow rocky areas where the snow pack has remained thin and each snow and wind event adds more stress.</p>
Generally good riding and turning with supportable conditions in sheltered terrain.
