Comments
Quick morning outing to Silver Fork from Alta. Been well over 2 weeks since I have been in this drainage, and wanted to get a sense of the depth of the snowpack. Overall snowpack looking strong and stable with 2+ meters. Few pits in the top 50-100 cms, and at best was getting ECTN (fracture initiated, but did not propagate) down 40 cms in a density inversion in storm snow from over this weekend.
