Observation: Chugach State Park
Location: South Fork Eagle River, Hiland Road mile 7.3
Two avalanches observed along upper Hiland Road in the steep chutes along the east side of the valley. The first at mile 7.3, the other higher up in the bowl just south of the first. Both originated in areas of significant wind drift. Unsure if human triggered, though this is unlikely for the second slide to the south.
Obvious signs of instability
Observer Comments
Considerable wind drift after the two storms on top of a weak layer.
Snow surface
Considerable wind crust, with large bare patches in between drifts above tree line.
