Quick report
- Collapsing
- widespread
We spent the day ski touring on N and E facing slopes, from 6000-7000 feet, near lost horse cabin. We did not experience anywhere near the amount of collapsing we saw the previous day at slightly higher elevation near the state line. We stuck to lower angle terrain, but did ski over a few small rollovers that did not produce any avalanche activity. Looking across the canyon at the middle Poverty Slide path we saw a natural avalanche that seemed to have occurred sometime during the day. It ran around 1700 vertical feet, but did not produce a very large debris pile. Probably d1.5 or d2.
