The Bridger Bowl Ski Patrol triggered multiple multiple slide during control work today (3-15-12). Most were triggered below the ridgelines in steep, rocky terrain. Strong south/soutwest winds loaded east and north facing slopes over the past few days. Fresh drifts are resting over weak and in some places isothermal facets, which are providing a weak foundation for any type of load. Photo GNFAC
