Observation: Wilson Glade

Small wet loose avalanches on steep, sunny slopes that initiated in rocky terrain.

Went to Wilson Glade to target a thinner snowpack area to see how the DJL has evolved over the last week of warm temperatures, rain, and recent snowfall. The slab is a little more than 2 feet thick. There are 2 melt-freeze crusts near the top of the snowpack, and most of the mid-February snow is settled into a 1F-P hard slab. ECTX and PST 34/103 END. Today, this problem would be unlikely to trigger, but not impossible. As we move into a loading event, the layer may become more reactive.
