Comments
We noticed these point releases slides while skinning up red baldy this morning at about 8. True north slopes above 10,000 had wind affected dense powder, below to 8500 had an unsupportable crust from the weak refreeze last night, and below that was damp. Almost all of the east aspects on the ridge between white baldy and thunder mountain slid at some point during the warm weather the last couple days.
