A snowboarder noticed several small slides on the east-facing walls of the Main Fork of Hyalite Creek and a small slab avalanche in the back of the Divide Peak basin. This slide is in an area locally known as Candy land/ ice farm

I went for a walk up the main fork of hyalite (hyalite lake trail) and noticed several small slides on the east facing walls of the canyon. When I made it to Hyalite lake, it was snowing and poor visibility so I could not see the back basin walls very well but noticed a small slab avalanche in the back of Divide basin
From Obs: "Went skiing up in Flanders area and saw several avalanches with crowns ranging from 1-3ft deep and running a several hundred yards wide. Also experienced two whumphs and some cracks on a wind-loaded aspect near the ridge"

From text: "went up to Champagne Sherbet to ice climb but then there was a big fracture on the approach! Got to a safe spot and dug to see - a strange drifted wind slab over the old belay area has created a scary snow cave trap! We bailed out of there..."
