Lightning Strike

-AVALANCHE HAZARD Minimal avalanche hazard. Has avalanche potential in the old lighting strike burn area between 1800m and 1700m. This slope is often wind or sun affected. Potential for reactive storm slabs when conditions are touchy on steeper open pockets lower on the run. -OTHER HAZARDS Often sun affected with moist snow, crusts or frozen chicken heads as its West facing and gets the afternoon sun. Caution large blow down trees lower half of run. -RUN NOTES / GROUP MANAGMENT Ski the group down the obvious open line making sure to stay on the high ground along the top of ridge. Encourage guests to stay in the middle of the run and not to get pulled out to the left or right as the trees get tighter and there is gullies on both sides. Regroup at the top of the old lighting strike burn where the terrain rolls over and gets steeper. From here send guests in 2 at a time and regroup at the cat road.
