Dan, best resource is the Roaring Fork avy information. Click the “avy” link in our top nav bar and use the resources chart. Don’t want to publish the URL here in case it changes. And of course doing your own field eval. Another thing to consider is when you look back there, and there are not any tracks, that indicates something. I ski that stuff mostly during spring snowpack, but it’s possible to do in winter if you play the game well.

I skied willy’s last weekend on my traditional tree hunting expedition. Not much snow as you likely already know but still some good if very tentative turns. Tips up an all.

I”d say 20″setting up as a nice base. No TG yet at least where I was.

You mentioned that mid-winter these runs are usually unstable. Is there a resource for monitoring the avalanche danger in the slackcountry runs off of Highland? Will be there in early Feb. and was wondering if I should even bother bringing my backcountry gear.
