Notes
Traveled out the North boundary of Bridger Bowl to Texas Meadow. S1-2 from 1030-1200. S2-3 from 1330 until we ended our day (1600). Moderate to Intense snow transport observed NTL. Loading observed on N & S aspects due to swirling and inconsistent winds. Total snow accumulation of 4" observed during our time in the field. Observed two natural avalanches in steep terrain above Texas Meadows, likely released during periods of high PI combined with wind (SS-R2-D1-N).
