stabalizing weather for the snowpack
Alaska Avalanche School had 20 observers testing in HP this past weekend.
partly cloudy
stabalizing weather for the snowpack
variable!
While we found many areas (primarily predominatly windward slopes with small pockets of sideloaded slabs) with pencile hard windslab over fist hard facets, all but one of our numerous tests showed no reactivity. Areas of generally thicker snowpack were without this poor structure.
