Comments:
A windslab suddenly collapsed near me on the ridge top above Little 3 Creeks. Then that turned into a loose wet slide that ran about 300'. Size R2 D1. In that spot neither the windslab or the loose wet slide were bonding to last week's rain crust. It was very warm today and anticipated some loose surface snow, but was a bit surprised by pocket of windslab that helped push more loose wet down the hill. Jonas
Did you see shooting cracks?
