Yesterday I was in upper Silver Fork and it absolutely puked all morning, and with decent winds - mostly from the NW I was able to ski cut out a pretty decent 1.5 foot soft slab that raced down Hideaway Park,and it appeared that the frequent flier of the upper headwall of W bowl went too - naturally? Today we were in the Meadow Chutes area and got a coupla impressive whoomphs, but no cracking and no movement (pretty low angle) in that pretty wind-sheltered area. Seems like the old wet/spongy snow from the weekend had an okay bond to the new snow....to a point, which to me seemed to be a bit on the steeper side (the slab I cut was probably 40 degrees at the top). Not sure where the whoomphs were coming from; maybe mid-storm variations between graupel and regular flakes? Should settle out tonight - and maybe make for slightly less-arduous trail breaking. Seems like we are going to get a gradual warming trend, but even so once the sun starts blasting things could get interesting? As Bruce likes to say, snowpacks don't like rapid change....</div></div>\n  <!-- See https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21field%21theme%21field.tpl.php/7.x -->\n      <div class=\"field-label text_02 bold mb0\">Today's Observed Danger Rating</div>\n        <div class=\"text_02 mb2\">Moderate</div>\n  <!-- See https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21field%21theme%21field.tpl.php/7.x -->\n      <div class=\"field-label text_02 bold mb0\">Tomorrows Estimated Danger Rating</div>\n        <div class=\"text_02 mb2\">Moderate</div>\n  <!-- See https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules%21field%21theme%21field.tpl.php/7.x -->\n\n        <!-- Ad underneath the left navigation desktop, this mobile web markup duplicates this where it should go -->\n                ",
