Comments
Headed up to the Monitors today thinking it might be my last trip there. There was evidence of new snow instabilities during the storm in the form of shallow soft slabs in West Monitor, and a more substantial wind slab in South Monitor. All these instabilities seemed to be gone today. The wind slab in South Monitor seemed to be triggered by a natural cornice fall. Crown was about 2 feet deep and maybe 60ft wide running two thirds track. Would expect most terrain to be crusted in the morning except for high north facing. Photos,
Soft slabs in West Monitor.
