South and West aspects came alive

Name: Zach Kinler

Zone: Southeast Mountains
Route Description: Dog walk through town.

Observed avalanche activity: Yes
Avalanches: A good number of large natural avalanches on South and West aspects from the recent cycle. Hard to tell exactly where in the snowpack they broke but several were widely propagating with crowns several feet deep suggesting they broke on weak layers within the snowpack. Some crowns looked quite fresh likely breaking within the last 24 hours while others likely broke earlier in the cycle.
Weather: Partly cloudy skies, light westerly winds, cool temps.
Snowpack:
