Wind loading in Bridger Range

Wind loading in Bridger Range

Plumes of snow were easily observed in the Bridger Range from Bozeman on Thursday afternoon Feb 17.  This wind loading is a red flag that the weather is contributing to instability.  Wind slabs near ridgetops will likely produce human tirggered avalanches.  Photo: GNFAC
