Quick Observation

Skied to just below the summit head wall today, we saw 7 new Na avalanches 24-72 hrs old mostly on steeper terrain and some were triggered randomly by light loads within the storm snow 30-40 cm deep, light wind loading. We found the Early Jan sh down 35-40 cm which was reactive to compression tests in the mod range, well preserved crystal. We had some whumpfiing at TL and stayed away from steeper pitch's at that elevation band.
