Recent avalanches, Horse Creek Divide, Jardine

Activity
Skiing

Toured into Horse Creek Divide up Jardine, observed several natural avalanches on North facing slopes. Avalanches had broke in the last week. Most avalanche activity was on North slopes between 9300 and 9800 ft. From a distance looks like they broke 2-3 feet deep and ran 300-600 feet. Opted to stick to low angle terrain, but had big shooting cracks and large whumpfs, especially above 9000 ft. Snowpack in Jardine closely resembles what I have seen South of Cooke City this year.
