Comments
Observed numerous natural avalanches along my drive up to Wolf Creek Pass today. I was only able to collect a couple photos. Poor visibility also inhibited being able to see further or more, however a natural cycle along N-E facing slopes appears to have occurred in the previous 12 hours. Difficult to ascertain whether these occurrences failed within new snow, or broke along our January Drought layer as crowns/flanks were actively being filled in again.
