Snow Profile Comments
Snow profile is from nearby, but well representative.... Simple and dangerous, a slab of wind drifted snow sits on very weak sugary snow near the ground.
Comments
I could see evidence of a small slab avalanche as I was waiting for my coffee at the Beans and Brew. There was other avalanche activity and slopes that had cracked and collapsed but were not steep enough to avalanche
