Comments
Bunnells weather station's precip and depth sensor are not currently working. Measured snow at the Bunnell's depth sensor at 263cm. Saw alot of older crowns on all of the SE slopes going down the North Bunnells Ridge Line. There was a new avalanche in Bunnells proper that most likely occured in the past 24-48 hours. N-HS-R4D4 5'-9' deep and 2200'-2500' wide. Impressive debris pile that ran out of sight down the gully. Couldn't tell if it was from a cornice fall, or wind loading. Very little activity in Big Springs drainages.
