Avalanche Details

Two recent glide avalanches were present at 10 AM on Seattle Ridge, the one pictured below directly adjacent to the Moto lot. The second was about 1/2 mile south on Seattle Ridge, and it had a light dusting of snow over the exposed ground. Both were about the same size, and on similar aspects/at the same elevation. No cracks seen on Seattle Ridge, with good visibility driving both north and south today.
