Moderate to strong winds transporting fetch were refilling both skin and ski tracks on an hourly basis.

Avalanche

After skiing quality NSF into Humbug Creek, we immediately noticed a recent, unintentionally skier triggered avalanche. Based on the sharp features of the debris and limited refill of the nearby ski track, the avalanche most likely occurred on Saturday 1/25.
