Quick report

We traveled cautiously on low angle slopes from horse creek instead to gun site pass and across to blind bull. Gunsite had a new cornice fail on 3/20 that was not there 3/19. We watched another group hill climb next to the day old wet slab slide which was uncomfortable to watch. When riding down from blind bull in the late afternoon we saw the glide cracks on a steep gully (not sure how long they’ve been there). By 5pm creeks had open water that wasn’t open in the morning. The snow off trail was very soft and sleds were punching through several feet by the afternoon. Snow depth was more than 280cm at one place below Gun Site Pass about 9,000’
