24-25

Our party of three triggered a wet loose avalanche comprised of new snow in Mad Man’s chute that slid into North Bowl. No skiers caught or harmed. 

Observed one pile of what looked to be fairly recent wet slide debris at the bottom of the cliffs below the Football Field on Saddle. Surprisingly, not a whole lot else of recent activity around Bridger. Seems like most things that wanted to go has already done so some days ago...

On may 6 on the Ramp there was 8-12” of heavy, mostly moist snow from yesterday. Winds were moderate to strong on the ridge and above ~7800’. Mostly cloudy.

Below the new snow, the snowpack was not refrozen. There was a very thin, 1cm crust with saturated wet snow below. There were old wet slides, d2, that ran last week out of the steep terrain south of the ramp. Wet snow avalanche potential could increase quick when temperatures get hot.

On the ramp this morning 5/6. There was 8-12” of heavy, mostly moist snow from yesterday. Winds were moderate to strong on the ridge and above ~7800’. Mostly cloudy.There were some fresh, hard wind slabs on the ramp. These may exist for another day or so on high, shady slopes.

On May 3 We were above the entrance to Exit Chute and triggered a slough slide that slid down one of the gullies that emptied into PK bowl. It appears to have followed an existing slide path, terminating in the top of what looked to be a significant existing avalanche runout. The slide looks pretty wide but not deep.
