Comments
NE Chute ran sometime between 0700-1030 on the 18th. Crown was in the main bowl with wind loading. Aspen Grove wx station picked up HST 17" and HSTW 2.86" with wind. Half fell as pea sized graupel. Definitely heard other large avalanches from study plot in Prim Rose, but did not have enough vis to see. Later in the day we could make out a filled back in crown at the headwall of Primrose Cirque.
