Shallow crust at Stadium Glacier

mcacho, Monday 21st February, 2022 3:50PM
<p>10-15 cm light and cool snow found on top of crust above treeline. Skin track, well trafficked at points proved challenging to some in the melt freeze ice below the trees. Recent natural storm slab activity observed on north facing polar aspect on top of Stadium Glacier on a 38 degree slope. Storm slab appears to have sat “on top” of itself suggesting terrain support, but concern was had about the outcome had it been on a convexity. Not reporting as an avalanche in this MIN due to small and limited size.</p>
