Date of Observation: 01/03/2022
Name: Cosmo L
Zone: Southeast Mountains
Route Description: Cement Mtn. NW-N-NE 9200-12200′
Observed avalanche activity: Yes
Avalanches: Cornice failure or small windslabs on N-NE terrain just below ridgetops. Didn’t seem like it stepped down into deeper layers, or maybe it happened early enough in storm to bury the evidence?
Weather: Clear and calm.
Snowpack: 60-130 cm. Deeper in some windloaded spots. Largely supportive. 6-8″ ski pen. A few lower elevation, northfacing spots with shallower snowpack have lost supportiveness over the last couple days. Got one collapse on low angle windloaded NW terrain @ treeline (big pillows behind tree fence on ridgtop). Lots of surface hoar on north facing terrain.
