Front Range

Avalanche

Kelly Lawrence · Mar 21, 2020 · Vail & Summit County

Mostly sunny. E face. ~12,000ft. W winds appear to be higher on the ridge. Where I'm at standing wind is maybe 18mph gusts.

No tests done on E aspect. E face has evidence of loose slides, naturally triggered. Assume new snow is somewhat unstable.

Evidence of both cornice fall slides and loose slides. Both appear to be fairly recent.
