Comments
I hiked Broads Fork trail above the beaver ponds to near The Diving Board and Blue ice. All of the usuals had avalanched including Diving Board, Blue Ice, and Bonkers. I could also see additional large glide or wet release activity below Dromedary in the hanging valley.
I did also see a skier who skied Bonkers late this morning.
During the couple hours that I was up above the ponds I heard around one half dozen rock falls from the area above me. I didn't see any of the rocks entrain snow but it bears watching as other wet release and/or larger glide avalanches are likely soon as more early season heat is forecast.
