Date of Observation: 04/01/2022
Name: Evan Ross
Zone: Southeast Mountains
Route Description: ENE 9,000 to 9,500ft
Avalanches: Small wind slab in Coon Bowl. Nothing notable in the Whetstone area, or around CB.
Snowpack: At 11am, east had a soft refrozen 4″ crust that was supportable to skis but not boots. The rest of the snowpack below had been wetted and appeared to consist of large grains but I didn’t look in detail. The recent snow had been zapped down to 2cm’s. This terrain will probably become unsupportable during the next warm-up.
