Comments
Noticed this slide from well trafficked skin track this in Snake Creek this afternoon. Slope was northeast facing and based on the small amount of snow on the crown we assume it was a natural trigger late in the storm cycle. Probably late Thursday night or early Friday. No visible ski tracks in the area. This slope has a little more east than northeast and typically gets a heavy sun crust.
