Touchy times. Several natural, rider triggered and rider remote slab avalanches ranging from 1-2(acidental/remotes) to sz3(na) in steep and convex lee alpine terrain on a layer of suface hoar from early Dec. Long propagation around terrain features and threw trees ranging fromb20-40cm deep. Lasts nights winds dropped several naturals mid storm and then the pile of riders triggered many in lee alp and treeline terrain. No discussions of involvements heard. Day was mainly sunny with broken clouds, then strong winds and overcast skies smashed down on the alpine in the late afternoon.
