Well, I'll finally be back in town this weekend and next week, and I have been bringing a gypsy curse to the snowfall wherever I go for the past two seasons. So it'll probably be terrible. :::fingers crossed:::

pretty dang nice midwinterlike snow w free refills & no liftlines in my 1-4pm shift, overheard many a bestday claim, hard to argue with that, we'll see what today brings, hopefully not2much windage overnight & we gitsum slushies smooveness...
Snows this past week have pushed the 30-year average SWE towards 90% in the Gallatin and Madison River basins. Storm totals for the last 36 hours are 18 inches in the Bridger Range and 12-14 inches in the northern Gallatin and northern Madison Ranges. This snow measures 1-1.5 inches of SWE. The northern mountains have the same weak snow structure as the southern ranges. A large natural avalanche on the west side of the Bridger Range Sunday is evidence that slopes are unstable (photo). Yesterday’s snowfall has increased instability in the backcountry, especially with winds loading slopes even more. It was reported this morning that the Football field on Saddle Peak avalanched last night. Over three inches of SWE has fallen since Wednesday, 4.5” in the Bridger Range. This is a steady, large load onto a weak snowpack and a lot of ammunition for wind-loading.
The avalanche problem is simple: lots of new snow and wind-loading is adding stress to a weak snowpack. Triggering an avalanche is likely today and the avalanche danger is rated HIGH on wind-loaded slopes steeper than 35 degrees and CONSIDERABLE on all others.Last edited by baseWeldr; 03-20-2012 at 07:23 AM.

Heh. You're welcome everyone. I left for DC Monday morning. I'll let you guys know when I'll be out of town again, so you can be ready for the next storm.
We heard you in our twilight caves, one hundred fathom deep below, for notes of joy can pierce the waves, that drown each sound of war and woe.

Damn. I bet SAR and Bridger Patrol are thanking their lucky stars that Football Field broke naturally on Monday night. Fortunately, I didn't seen anyone heading out Saddle yesterday.
As to when it will stabilize? Maybe never. Chabot was on The Moose this morning warning about wet slides. Massive, heavy, wet snow followed by damn near 70 degrees on Sunday? That all equals some serious fucking gnar out there. I'd be we'll see some stuff like that slide video out in France posted earlier this month.
