Last night (5/15) a wet slab released naturally on Saddle Peak. The debris ran a long distance compared to similar sized dry slabs that often occur on this path. Be aware of steep terrain above you during warm, sunny days or during heavy rain. The snowpack has recently become wet and unstable with the warmest temperatures of the year, and forecast heavy rain can create further wet snow instability. Photo: R. Elliott/BBSP A deep snowpack still exists and avalanches are possible into June. See our forecast page for general spring info. #gnfacobs Link to avalanche details and crown photo: https://www.mtavalanche.com/node/20710
