Went out with the Avi Control crew at 6am today. Took about 40mins just
to dig the Summit chair out enough to start it up for the crew. Got to
throw a bomb - even got a slide going with my throw - small slide, but
fun to trigger that way instead of from inside.

That ROCKS.

We just had another death. Over by Deer Valley. This year, low
elevation. no gear, during the first day of the storm, seems to be the
fatal combination. Oh.. and backside. Resort day tomorrow.

Any Tahoe BC people should let this settle for a day or two - there's a
weak layer 35in+ deep in the pack, from the rain crust a couple of
weeks ago with some faceting just above it. But things are actually
sliding on a wind layer about 15in+ down. Just give it some time and
it'll be OK - why push it?

I would guess here it's starting at a layer from about 1 week ago and
stepping down. Running fast and far...
