Bridger Bowl has a backcountry snowpack because the ski patrol has not done avalanche mitigation yet. It's wise to treat the area as such and only expose one person at a time. In this photo five people skin up. Thirty seconds after this pic was snapped the entire Bronco face cracked and collapsed...a close call. The snowpack does not care if you are in or out of bounds right now...it's all the same. Photo: GNFAC
