From obs on 03/07: "observed several crowns on Republic from Town Hill, likely from 03/06. Ray's had a slide on its west end which appeared to be isolated from the large avalanche that was filmed on the shoulder/Ray's. We saw up to 4 other crowns in Republic bowl on NE, N, and NW aspects including one that broke on the NE facing spines looker's left of the Fin that got legs and ran into the trees out of site (R1-D2?)."

scary sized crowns in the Northern Bridgers 240308

Date
Activity
Snowboarding

We spotted several large crowns in the Northern Bridgers today.  All appeared natural from the last few days.  The snowpack has changed significantly since our last visit at the beginning of the week.  A soft wind slab is now forming on top of the loose dry powder that fell recently.  We did not have anything move on our runs but did have some collapsing on the skin track and boot pack.
