Comments
Saw several new slab avalanches this morning up in the Wellsville range that seemed to have failed within the new snow or on the new/old interface (most likely with the help of the wind) on east and southeast aspects. Red lines make it easier to see crown as pictures are from far away. On southerly slope at lower elevation along the highway was some rollerball and wet loose activity at around noon.
