Weather
SkiBumPhilosophy.com - Prospect Gulch. No new snow since yesterday afternoon. Bluebird day. I would say it was about 40F. Plus being at 11,400ft the sun is hot! Not much wind today, very calm. South and East facing snow was sticky. Imagine that will be crusty tomorrow. Point release slides on East faces this morning from sun. Natural storm and wind slab avalanches on North faces above tree line. The East face of Prospect Gulch was wind wrecked, with a big cornice, and super loaded.
