- Instability Comment
- <p>New wind slab developing even though there is limited snow available for transport due to the density of the new. Storm slab as well existing due to density of snow.</p> <p>Lower elevations have some wet issues, natural and skier triggered activity below about 8,500'. I would think even with cooler temps it will take a little while for this to lock back up.</p>
Rain/snow line was right about 8k' in Argenta with a few inches of HST around 9k'. Slightly more around 10k. Dense new snow.
