Date of Observation: 11/26/2021
Name: Evan Ross Eric Murrow
Zone: Northwest Mountains
Route Description: Toured on northerly facing terrain from 9,500ft to 11,500ft.
Observed avalanche activity: No
Avalanches: Nothing notable. Some roller balls on southerly facing slopes and both dry/wet sluffs from the last couple days.
Weather: Clear and warm. Calm wind.
Snowpack: On this tour, the last Tuesday/Wednesday storm had made no deference in the avalanche conditions that were being reported previous to the storm. Just a nice refresh on the surface. We didn’t encounter any wind-loading or wind effected snow. Around 11,000ft the HS was about 80cm. You could still find areas with a 4f mid-pack, in the otherwise generally faceted and soft snowpack. Ski pen averaged about 15cm.
