ETA: confirmed fatality, in an area between the Middle Fork and Georgia Pass. :frown:
Shit.
Summit Daily News updating their story, confirming it was a snowmobiler.Quote:

80° in Denver. Fuck it’s hot out.
I bet it is windy as well.
Seems like a big avalanche cycle right now. Hope it all sheds naturally because we were having fun on big lines before this last storm. Stupid rain.
Another fun wind event.
At least we'll get a freeze again tonight. Looking at Joel's post today looks like it was wicked warm up high.
Windy today. Chair 2 and chair 9 on wind hold at Vail.
51 in Vail at 9amQuote:

Lower elevations will be hurting though. Good thing most of them close this weekend.
Downed trees and branches all over Snowmass this morning. Low of 49 last night.Quote:

Crazy dust storm blowing through Durango currently. One of the most intense ones since maybe 2011?Quote:

Yep, it is intense, to say the least. It looked like fucking armageddon out in the San Luis Valley. I left my car windows cracked and had a layer of dust after only an hour. My eyes will never forgive me for working in this shit.Quote:
