Comments
Knocked a few small slabs off in hideaway park this morning. All were failing in a density change in the top 3-6" of snow. On my last lap around 2pm the density change was much less prominent, and the instability seemed to have largely settled out. All were D1 or smaller, but they picked up a good bit of snow and could easily catch a rider off guard if it wasn't expected.
