From email on 01/13: "From Miller Ridge today, I had a brief look into Sheep Creek, and to the mountains south of Cooke City, and observed 7 fresh slab avalanches (that happened in the last 1-3 days).  Will send photos of them later if I can get better views.

Most of them were on NEerly aspects, and appeared to be on the new/old Jan. 5th interface.  Mid and upper elevations, most commonly in wind loaded terrain.  Some propagating a few hundred feet wide. "
