Quick report
- Cracking
- isolated
Had about 8" of new snow the night before and a total of about 3 1/2' in that area. Weather has been cold as usual and some fairly heavy wind gusts. Traveling across the debris field was very cautious making sure not to potentially trigger another slide from higher up. Stability of the remaining snow I would say is fairly good.

Up Stryker Ridge In the large clearing overlooking Antice road area. roughly 5,800-6,000ft. about 45 degree slope. Slide happened 1/17/24 about mid afternoon. Potentially triggered by sound and vibration of a ski cat but not positive. Nobody was caught in the avalanche, it broke when nobody was around. Roughly a 6-8" slab that broke loose and it ran a width of roughly 250 yards across the hill side and down across the trail.
