"We also conducted avalanche mitigation on our Cabin’s Road at 4:30pm. The snowpack in this zone doesn’t get skied and is representative of the backcountry. The slope is ENE around 8,400’. Several wet slab avalanches were produced with explosives and ski cutting. The avalanches ranged from R4/D2 to R2/D1. They all hit the road and several crossed, and buried, the Cabin’s Road. Although most of this mitigation was done with explosives, it took minimal effort with skis to get snow moving. The crowns were 2-3’ deep and ran on the ground." Photo: YCSP

We drove up Bridger Canyon to look for wet snow avalanche activity. We observed 4-5 wet slab avalanches in Argentina Bowl that failed full depth, a full depth wet loose avalanche in the Pinnacles area, 6 full depth slab and loose snow avalanches north of Ross Peak and several full depth loose snow avalanches in the north of Frazier Basin. Additionally, there were many shallower wet loose avalanches. This activity occurred primarily on March 27th, but some occurred in the preceding days. Photo: GNFAC

From obs 3/26/22: "Freezing temps overnight created breakable crust in the morning which quickly deteriorated as the day warmed. (Temps rose surprisingly faster than we anticipated.  Experience large whumphs while ascending the NW shoulder of Electric Pk. at 9600 ft. Without hesitation we turned back and skied out the skin track. The snow became very rotten and we penetrated to boot-tops often while exiting." Photo:  S. Miller
