Comments
We saw this slab avalanche from the East Ridge of Superior, it was one of many naturally triggered avalanches caused by the warm temperatures today. We observed wet avalanches on every aspect except for due North today, that being said North Facing aspects are getting warmed and the snow is notably wetter than it has been in the past couple of days.
