Spent some time up in Summit Park today and skied S, W, and N facing terrain. There was allot less snow in this area than than BCC or LCC but the same problem of buried NS facets exists. Triggered a few wind slabs on the upper ridge lines at about 9000ft, The largest one was about 10 to 12 inches deep, 60ft wide and ran 150ft down into the trees, the weak layer was buried facets sitting under a wind slab. The pockets we triggered were both remotely triggered from a distance and the new snow was quite sensitive. I figure this area has allot in common with Mt Aire, Lambs Canyon and Murdock Peak. I would think with more snow and wind the avalanches will increase in size and scope.
Crown and run out of the larger slide, a smaller remotely triggered slide, cracking in the new snow.
