even had straight blue skies! (except for the few snowy pics in the koot sect). looks like a really nice area to play in when there's a bunch of snow.
Glad someone got out to enjoy the end of the season!

looks like Elkford was decent. nice pictures. we were in corbin on saturday went into jeromes bowl and found enough snow to get stuck in a few times. a couple of us rented a house for the winter in Elkford a few years ago. were you guys in smith basin? did u get into tundra creek? one of the best things about elkford was that it was legal to ride in town. we would always ride from the house. i heard there is a burning coal seam somewhere around there. anyone know where it is or hear anything about it?
oh man the season we rode there there was a big avy that came down and filled damn near the whole gorge where the main trail up to coco claims goes. dont think anyone was hurt, after that i always got the heeby geebys riding through there.

Hey PH...yup we rode Smith and Tundra. Stayed in that area and rode a few places. First time riding in that area, snow pack is less than at home but was nice to see more area and hang with some new peeps. Wouldn't mind going back next year on a good snow day
Didn't see any burning coal seam...MattMedic and JC might know about that...

Written By John Kelly of the CAC
One of the fundamental principles of travel in avalanche terrain is to limit the numbers exposed to the consequences of an avalanche. Riding in avalanche terrain should be a solitary activity, thus you group up in a safe spots and then hit the slopes alone. Somehow this principle is not being followed in the sled accidents we are seeing. Over the next few weeks the CAC will be aggressively pursue messaging that targets this public safety issue. We are asking you to help.
With the current conditions as they are we can expect to see decreasing frequency of avalanches but with increasing size. This means it becomes more and more tempting to hit the slope that you have resisted because you may go quite a long time without seeing any avalanche activity. Unfortunately when a slide does occur (I did not say "if") the strong likelihood is that it will be bigger than expected. It can also occur on slopes that are less steep than usual. It is therefore critical that people respect the one-at-a-time rule for slope use - even in moderately steep terrain!
I would be expecting avalanche activity in the coming week to be on slopes about 30 to 35 degrees with a wide-open smooth character. This is not very steep.
I am interested in your thoughts on how we encourage reduced numbers of exposed people at the same time in avalanche country. If you are seeing bad habits in terms of grouping together where you are, you should consider taking action to counter the trend. Please forward this message to your members.
