Comments
Skied 2 laps off the ridge just south of Twin Lakes pass on the east facing slope ending at Twin Lake. and was getting widespread cracking on almost every turn. a couple of the cracks propagated into small avalanches that were less than 20ft wide and ran less than 20ft. Included below is one of the largest. Interestingly, this one was triggered in a moderately treed area at the bottom of the run (not along a ridge line, below a cornice, or in an open area) showing that the wind was blowing pretty good earlier in the day.
