Good Evening! Its Snowing! Big Flakes. Its -1 and supposed to stay that way for the evening while it snows for the next three days per the forecast. South Rockies are supposed to get 35cm of snow and timing is good as it was getting to be spring like conditions on slopes exposed to wind. Our guests said the trees by the Notch were fun and Limestone was good climbing for first time mountain riders - lots of traction, good base and they could get everywhere. Cooper found some floater snow deep enough to carve in down in the meadows by McClatchie. I took the photos almost 2hrs ago and we have 4cm of wet heavy snow already. Check your avy bulletin - ratings are going high as the new load will likely pressure that persistent weak layer (PWL) to release and start a round of natural avalanches. Maybe lay low playing in open meadows or in areas you know really well and can spot changes or concerns easily until this has a few days to settle after the 72hrs. Pipeline may be fun to ride with new snow on it and the trees should be good too. Timbersled riders are here tomorrow - fun fun fun! Curt sold his XP and bought a new SkiDoo! Congrats Ty on your first mountain sled! Ride safely and have a blast! Cheers and Happy New Year! V
