A small pocket, failing on the rime crust. Appears triggered by cornice fall, but hard to be 100% sure as things were filling in so quickly today. Lots of cracking and a few large collapses as we walked the ridge, but no other avalanches. Stability tests continue to indicate we teeter in the balance between scary unstable and a massive avalanche cycle. The timing of this storm event on this snowplack is a little unsettling with the Holidays around the corner and so many people with time off.

Quick Vid from West Bowl today, one of the more pleasant days I've had in the Wasatch in many years!! Nice to see winter return and give students some real learning decsions.
