- <p>Observed signs of slides that went during the storm cycle. One collapse while ascending on skis. </p>
Went up to Wolf Creek Pass and had a quick two lap ski north of the pass on Camp Peak (9750). I was surprised how little overall snow I found where I dug my pit, 28". Pit results continue to reflect weak basal snow with columns failing with medium effort in this layer. Plenty of slope testing going on today with a decent amount of sled traffic on steep east facing slopes with no results. I noticed several pockets that released naturally during the storm cycle.
Stubborn wind slab on the ridge line
