Quick report

Collapsing
isolated

Localized collapsing with 4 skiers traversing out onto a 15-20 degree slope. Dug a pit as a part of an Avy 2 class. Consolidating storm slab atop a couple layers of rounding facets and then large angular facets near the ground.

Avalanche

D1 storm/wind slabs above the road on the way up to Galena Summit from the south. Probably triggered by a plow.
