All these avalanches around the state are breaking into weak faceted snow deeper in the snowpack. We have the same weak layers here on the Skyline. The difference is that we haven't received as much snow out of the last two storms as the regions to our north have. We are only seeing scattered avalanche activity with shallower fracture lines. It's still a dangerous situation here and these layers are very slow to stabilize.

The only thing you can do with buried Persistent Weak Layers of loose sugary faceted snow is avoid the steep terrain. You can't accurately predict that one steep slope will stay in place and another won't. All you can do is have patience and wait for things to stabilize or roll the dice.
