- Red Flags Comment
- <p>The wind slab that released in the photo below was one of the upper lines on Rocky Point at 10,400 and NE facing. It was triggered from what seemed to be a cornice kick. It failed with little connectivity within the new snow and did not step down. The line was then skied.</p>
Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>Most of the wind slabs seemed to have settled and were stubborn on my travels. Winds were howling and loading slopes at mid and upper elevations especially along the upper ridges. I would think there are isolated places up high where these slabs could be more reactive and also carry the potential of gouging the rest of the seasons snowpack with it.</p>
Sort of a mixed bag out there. Great powder in protected areas out of the wind. Wind board and a little upside down in more exposed areas.
