Wawa north slopes

ericdanielgrant, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>We skied a few laps on the northern slopes of wawa in the sunshine back country. Found shooting cracks and whumphing at all elevations. We came over a roll near the top of wawa to find two small avalanches. One was about 40m wide and had a path length of only about 15m. The other about 10m wide and 40m long. They were approximately 50m apart and had cracks running between them. Both running the length that the terrain would allow. Both ran on the crust near the ground. The snow pack was approximately 1m deep with a profile similar to what was posted near by on Nov 14.</p>
