Comments
I found a number of small natural avalanches that released during the storm. They all fractured and broke into loose faceted snow which formed during the November dry spell.
Comments
My partner and I also experienced cracking, collapsing and triggered a couple of very small pockets that fractured 50 to 100 feet away from us. This is typical behavior for a buried Persistent Weak Layer. This is a dead giveaway that avalanche conditions will become dangerous at some point during upcoming storms.
