Wood street kids

We headed out through Summit creek and across the valley into the Big Y loop on a sled tour. We came across a group of youth ski touring from Wood street school, so stopped to check in. We had a good chat in the sun about gear, conditions and avalanche careers. We talked about cornices, which may start popping with continued warming. We discussed wind slab, which is starting to heal out on the north aspects. We also talked about wet loose avalanches, which are happening in steep rocky terrain on S aspects. It was great to see youth out and about, learning about terrain and how to manage it. We did not see any avalanche activity today. Wet loose are continuing to produce size 1 avalanches out of rocky steep terrain, but with minimal snow to entrain. We continue to give cornices lots of space as we travel with these warm temperatures, they are lurking and waiting to pop. Sunny all day, calm winds and temps anywhere from -1 to 3 degrees, yikes.
