There was a foot of new snow adding stress to the facets near the ground. This was on an east facing slope off the ridgeline. I did not get propagation in all my pits on this aspect, but did here. Eric triggered an avalanche two days ago a few hundred yards up the ridge on this aspect. As long as the buried facets continue to propagate, I'll be cautious. We did not ski the slope. Photo: GNFAC
