Beauty tour up Hospital Bowl to between Video Peak and Ursus Minor. Noted two small naturally triggered size 1 avalanches that had slid from the rocky part of the ridge NE of video peak. (See photo of the east one. The other slide was about 400m SW towards video peak and the same length and type). Looked recent. Snowpack felt solid everywhere we rode. Very, very busy day and quite skiied out in some sections. (Rogers Pass ski resort lmao.) Not the lightest powder I've ever ridden but super fun. GPS pin is an approximation of our high point where we transitioned at 2410m. Photo is taken from the approach a couple hundred meters down the skintrack.
