Quick report
- Red Flags
- Recent Avalanches, Heavy Snowfall, Wind Loading, Rapid Warming, Poor Snowpack Structure
Travels today were Davenport/Oingo Boingo/ Main Days/ Etc.
Noted density inversions in the new snow early on in the day and observed several 8-18" crowns throughout our travels, likely skier triggered in Jaws, Oingo Boingo, and Main Days. I expectedly triggered an adjacet soft slab in Main Days to the previous avalanche, approx 100ft wide and running slowly down approx 300 vert. I was able to ski safely out to the side without incident. We triggered several predictable push-a-lanches with ski cuts. Of note travel today was with a team of 4 with excellent communication.
