Quick report

With the persistent slab/wind slab issue today we were avoiding slopes steeper than 30 degrees. The weather was mostly cloudy and temps around and a little below freezing.

Avalanche

Two skier triggered avalanches spotted on a NW facing slope at 7000ft around the playground zone at Tam Rim. The slide occurred an hour before we arrived and we found a skier looking for his skis in the debris field on arrival at 1:30pm. The crown was about 30 to 40 cm and width was around 60 meters. D1.5
