For those of you heading to placer in the next few days. I went cat skiing with CPG today from ALy and after reaching the top in the cat the guides pulled the rip cord on the day before even one run. After seeing natural slides crowning about 5' deep on very mild 20-25 degree slopes I truely was not disappointed. So for anyone going to placer the chute up to squirrel is is extremely dangerous and deadly I would suggest staying in the trees and killen the creek beds....... Give the snow time to adjust the wait of the latest 5' dump is finally tipping the scales on the January rain crust and mother nature will clean its self up in the next few days. Follow the avy forecast website and be safe. We lost enough great people last year and don't need to see that happen again. Push it, Live it, Love it!!!!!
