Comments
When touring up butler fork to Wilson peak Saturday morning I noticed two recent avalanches on the steep northerly Ridgeline southeast of gobblers knob. Both looked like wind probable Slab avalanches. I was across the ridgeline so I couldn't get a good look at them. I also did not see any tracks near them, but the tracks may have been covered by wind deposited snow during the high winds 2 days prior.
