Weak layers on Buck Ridge - Video
Dug in 1st and 2nd Yellowmules. Found 3-4 ft of total snow with 1.5 ft of 2mm facets at the ground in both pits. Fist-plus hardness. ECTP23 & ECTP24. The structure looks similar to what we've been seeing in the S.Madison and Lionhead area. This is the farther north we've found the thick layer of facets and makes us suspicious it might be in other areas north of Big Sky.
5-6” new snow. New snow was somewhat drifted, but not intensely.
Saw a small (R1D1) wind slab avalanche along the 2nd Yellowmule Ridgeline. ~20 ft wide, 1 ft deep, and ran 100 vertical ft. Looked to be wind drifted snow that broke yesterday.
