Avalanche

Flew around the forecast area looking for notable avalanches from last weekend's wet cycle not yet reported. I Estimated an additional15-20 large Wet Loose avalanches running out of steep terrain generally from E-S-W near and above treeline. Around 8 new Wet Slab avalanches were observed, all in the D2 range on a variety of steep, sunny slopes.
