Hellroaring

cordillera.tech, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Great skiing in Hellroaring today. Is snowed lightly for the morning then started clearing off in the afternoon as the arctic air moved back in after a few snowy days. Did not dig, but made a few relevant observations: - 190-210 cm snowpack depth at 2050 m (open glade in south facing treeline terrain) - top 50-60 is recent and very low density storm snow. - 100-110 cm on top of late November crust. - No slab avalanches observed besides last night's storm snow (about 15-20 cm) sliding on some unsupported cut slopes, max 10 m wide. - Some loose dry snow sluffing out of very steep terrain, max size 1.5 - No significant wind affect even at ridge crest - No obvious instabilities observed (no whumphing, minimal cracking) - Excellent skiing in cold and deep powder </p>
