ACTIVITY: BC Skiing
LOCATION: Red Lady Bowl
ELEVATION: 9200’ to 12,400′
ASPECT: SE – S
WEATHER: Clear, warm, moderate winds throughout day.
SNOWPACK/AVALANCHE OBS: Exactly as described on the bulletin. The top of the bowl had small wind slabs and bigger cornices. There’s about a foot of new snow deposited on the old surface and the upper half of this is warm and dense. In the middle of the sandwich was drier, winter-like snow. Ski cutting didn’t produce any activity. There’s evidence of wet, loose slide activity from yesterday – most likely initiated by small cornice drops. We were out of there before anything heated up too much.
