Comments
Main concern on this particular aspect is large amounts of wind loading. While the sun helped our December dry spell PWL there's still plenty of evidence of it here not to mention on non-solar aspects or sheltered areas. It was very difficult to get the new snow to fail on this layer but with some help of wind slabs or on an aspect where the layer was more protected, the likelihood of triggering large avalanches is high.
