Comments
Today, we triggered a small wind slab in Upper Days Fork (Two Dogs). This was a small avalanche in low-consequence terrain. If you were above steep, sustained terrain, this would be all it takes to wreck your day. The biggest hazard will be small wind slabs in dangerous terrain for the next couple of days.
