Football Field Snowpack - Bridger Range

Football Field Snowpack - Bridger Range

After 20" of fresh snow the snowpack on the Football Field was surprisingly thin.  Not only was the pack thin, it was weak.  During stability tests we got two ECT's to propagate on facets directly below a hard wind slab.  This is discouraging since this area will continue to see loading and lots of traffic.  Photo GNFAC
