Wind loading and small avalanches - Sacajawea

Soft slab avalanches were releasing in the circled area and running several hundred feet downslope.  These should become larger if winds continue overnight.  There are a few clouds in this picture, but much of what you see is wind blown snow.  Photo: GNFAC
