wind slabs from 2-26-08


Some folks did some extensive slope testing after the Sunday-Monday storm and triggered a handful of small wind slabs.


The avalanches are small compared to their paths, but might have caused problems if you got knocked off your sled.


The slab on a northeast facing slope at ~9200' is a bit over a foot deep and 30-40' wide....


Snow deeply buries the Tony Grove campground toilets.
