Has anyone else noticed that the avalanche ratings go up on the weekends regarless of weather? Maybe I'm only noticing this year because I ride weekends now, but I check the avy and weather reports daily throughout the season, and it always seems that the rating shoots through the roof on weekends... At least here in the West Koots.
My best guess is that they predict more avalanches because most of them are human triggered, and more bodies on the hill means likely more avies? Is the CAC covering their butt a bit in case something happens?
I've ridden more simple, treed terrain this year than my last 4 years of riding combined. The testing we've done has had my confidence pretty high, while the report shows red...
