Have you heard of roof avalanches? They can drop enough snow to fully bury someone, especially a small child. It happens and it has killed people. The most recent were in 2023, an adult in Utah and a child in Colorado. Mountain cabins can easily have enough snow. Kids are particularly vulnerable since they often play in snow piles next to houses and cabins while parents are inside. 🎥 @lizskis | Friends of the Gallatin National Forest Avalanche Center

Snow can be complex, but there are skills and knowledge that we can learn to help keep us safe in the backcountry and avalanche terrain. This is our "flour board". We use it to demonstrate simple avalanche mechanics regarding slope angle. Do you know what slope angle avalanches occur at? We hung out with a few thousand school kids at STEMFEST 2023, discussing careers in the snow world and demonstrating how simple avalanche mechanics and slope angles work together! Thanks, @stemutah, for the invi

Clear weather at the beginning of December weakened the snow surface to such an extent that you can trigger Loose Dry avalanches in the faceted surface snow. These avalanches are often called facet sluffs. In some spots, especially in the Central Mountains, these avalanches are starting to get big. Due to their small size, riders are not usually directly hurt by these avalanches, but it is not uncommon for people to get hurt or even killed when they can't escape these small avalanches and are pu
