- Red Flags Comment
- <p>Fairly widespread avalanche cycle overnight in steep shady terrain in mid and upper elevations. </p>
Profile dug where we experienced a collapse and remotely triggered an avalanche. Snow depth there was 65-75cm.
ECTN20 at failure plane of avalanche.
Dangerous avalanche conditions exist on many steep slopes at the mid and upper elevations. Remotely triggered avalanches will remain likely.

- Instability Comment
- <p>We noted many naturals overnight Thursday into early Friday, finding just a couple inches on the bedsurface. Many ran mid-slope, Collapsing and cracking noted more often than not. </p> <p>Few slides were more than 75' wide. Slab still consolidating. All noted ran at top of old facet interface 12-16" deep. </p> <p>We remotely triggered three size 1.5-2 avalanches walking the ridgeline from Flagstaff to East Pass. </p>
