I am home, in Jackson, WY and the windows are being rattled by what I assume is continued avalanche control work by the Jackson Hole Ski Patrol, several miles away at the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. They are probably loading up sleds with explosives (fertilizer), lowering them down slopes to the perceived starting points and detonating them. It will be interesting to find out what avalanches and if the slides produced are running on the ice layer or busting through that to the facets on the ground.
Be safe in there and out there.

Steve, thanks for providing much needed info during this last week. This is scary stuff just sitting by a window and watching the roof slide from above our heads.
