We noticed the wind start in the morning, and a couple of hours later, we saw a size two avalanche in extreme terrain. As the wind increased through the day, we saw snow blowing off ridges, and lee slopes loading in the Alpine and Treeline. Today, we saw lots of terrain, had fun and avoided the avalanche hazard by riding low-angle terrain and small slopes.
