This maybe the same bunch of avalanches that Cowboy saw on Thursday. One looked bigger than than on the Thurs pictures. Only below the steep ridge tops is there considerable danger. If the winds pick up as the next storm comes in there could be more avalanches due to strong SW winds and the amount of available loose snow.
