Any other comments about the observation or links to outside pages that have more info on the observation:
had an awesome spring day in the mountains. Saw a lot of recent avalanche activity from the wet heavy layers in the snow from the past week. There was about a foot of fresh snow, it was indeed quite heavy. Lots of roller balls and wet loose slides that had occurred within the past 48 hours. Cornices wet massive on the ridge line. The temps cooled throughout the day and we were able to ride until 6:00 with the days being longer!!:):) Sun came out on our way out and made for a beautiful view of the valley!
Most everything we usually see activity on had already slid naturally in the past 48 hours.
