Quick report
Roughly 2' of snow has been deposited on the west side of the tetons in the last 3 days. Warming temps and the first day of sunshine have added slab characteristics to this new snow and caused destabilization at this location. Avalanches during yesterdays mitigation were mostly failing on layers within the new snow (the thurs-fri interface)
