[MCR] Selkirks avalanches

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

Part way through a week here in the Valkyr Range in the southern  
Selkirks and to put it succinctly things are "going off". We have had  
many skier controlled and natural avalanches with several being  
triggered remotely from 5-8 meters away. They have been in the size  
1.5 to size 2 range but we have been keeping to small terrain. In  
larger features there would be larger avalanches. All have failed on  
the surface hoar buried February 9. All of our nearest neighbours  
have been seeing the same thing.

Heads up.
