Natural Avalanches on Saddle Peak

Natural Avalanches on Saddle Peak

Date

Driving up Bridger Canyon this morning, we noted several natural avalanches in wind loaded terrain on Saddle Peak, the Football Field, and in Mundy’s Bowl. All The avalanches seems to be a similar wind slab problem. They broke just below the cornice line. From a distance and considering yesterday’s new snow, I would guess a foot deep or so (R2, D2, I)
