[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

92 cm of snow in the last 3 days is producing a widespread natural cycle. Temperatures have warmed to -4 at 1900m and the snow continues. With 100cm of snow last week and 92 this week, the snow pack has almost doubled in the past 10 days. It  is now sitting at 225cm. This storm started out cold and there has been very little settlement in the storm snow. No cracking or other signs of instability were observed until this afternoon.
We observed a size 3 natural today at 4 pm. It started at a south facing ridge line feature and ran full path taking out small trees. Suspect the January 4th facet layer or the recent storm snow. Numerous other avalanches were heard during the afternoon.
