Avalanche Observations

  • Driving home on 395 today I noticed this crown line from a past wind slab that most likely ran at some point in the last two days. Possibly even yesterday because we didn’t notice it on Monday, also a sunny day with good visibility.
  • NE aspect, just below 9800 ft.
  • Convex rollover that ends in a long, unsupported concave slope with sparse tree cover.
