Notes

Skiers observed large wet loose avalanches at Bridger on 4/22

GNFAC forecaster noted many natural wet slides throughout the Bridger Range. D1-D2 in size on E-S aspects from previous days (4/20-4/22). One slide north of Flathead Pass appeared to gouge to the ground and may have been a narrow wet slab. All others were relatively shallow, but some ran far.

Glide cracks opening on the Throne and Glide Plane.
