2 avalanches, collapsing and ECTP3 in Taylor Fork

Activity
Snowmobiling

Dave Zinn saw two avalanches, had a large collapse and an ECTP3 in his stability test.

Like the rest of the advisory area, the snowpack in the Taylor Fork is unstable and consists of a weak foundation capped by a slab of snow. Considerable danger, recent avalanches and collapsing were enough to keep us off steep slopes. Without new snow this week, you will observe fewer obvious signs of instability, but the weak structure will persist, and any steeper terrain should be approached cautiously.
