East side of King's Hill, Little Belt Mountains
Date
Activity
Snowmobiling
Saw a snowmobiler trigger a wind slab avalanche of an east facing slope near the head of the Weatherwax Creek drainage on Kings Hill. The rider was not caught. Despite a recent 18" snowfall reported by Showdown, there was almost no snow left on the trail above the slope due to high winds. The crown appeared to be 12-18" deep and about 100 feet wide, and the slide ran about 300 feet.
