Name: Sean Feese
Subject: Shred lady glades
Aspect: East, South
Elevation: 12600
Avalanches:
Obvious slide from early party in rlb.. apparently triggered from cutting or stomping the summit cornice. Natural slide on east face of Garfield (D2), natural on saddle between Richmond and Hancock (D2 east facing). A few more naturals all on east facing slopes.
Weather: Clear sunny skies, very light winds. Cold
Snowpack: Thin, wind affect. Westerly winds definitely contributed to loading on east faces. Storm slab over facets. Heard some whomping, no cracking. Redwell is looking strange and quite wind affected. Glades skied nice, thin up top and down low.
