Snowpack

Wind loading has tipped the scales on larger above treeline E slopes. Almost all large above treeline slopes have slid R3-3.5 / D3-3.5. Stella Mtn, Granite Mtn, Bald mtn, Clover Mtn to name a few. Havent seen a few of these run in many years. But wind protected N-NE below treline slopes in the area are generally bomber!CTN was common.
