Weather

Clear, calm, beautiful day.

Snowpack

Around 60-110cm (1.26" of SWE measured in one snowpit) of new snow making up the slab from this past weekend's storm and last weekend's storm (Nov. 19). Although early in the season the current slab is capable of producing large and widely propagating avalanches and will be relatively easy to trigger for at least a couple more days, and likely to remain Stubborn for some weeks before dropping down to Unreactive.

Avalanche

Many small avalanches off Mount Justice with larger avalanches in North Anthracite Creek coded here: https://avalanche.state.co.us/observations/field-report/0fcb6ff4-f0a9-4c95-aac8-adb7ab42fcb0
