Comments
Once again the instabilities from yesterday seemed to be a thing of the past, there were some shallow soft slabs released by skiers but nothing that was not quite manageable. Did note some larger soft slabs and sluffs that pulled out yesterday during the high PI rates, this only seemed to occur in steeper terrain. One soft slab of note pulled out on the E facing between Cardiac Ridge and Cardiac Bowl and ran about 1500ft to lower angle terrain. Only instabilities noted today were minor sluffing. Photos.
