Gathering baseline data from the Northern Whitefish Range, up to 6,000’

• 15-18” total snow depth. No signs of instability, notable pit results, or recent avalanches
• In general, the snow is still well anchored by brush. A few terrain features near peak top appeared to have enough snow to slide
• The snow structure consisted of 15” of right-side-up storm snow over a 5cm, 1F rain crust over a discontinuous layer of moist facets from October’s dry spell.
