Adam Steer<p>Just seeing a workshop call for ice sheet processes to be held on Stradbroke Island (near Brisbane, Australia), in July.</p><p>The optics are a bit odd (+fuel for rabid RWNJs.) If you're going to do a cryosphere meeting in Australia in July at least pick a place with fewer "public funded tropical holiday" vibes 🤷</p><p>BTW if you're planning for IGARSS this year to talk snow, hit me up. I prob. won't be attending - happy to talk ski tours before/ after and go dig some pits ;) </p><p><a href="https://mapstodon.space/tags/snowscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>snowscience</span></a> <a href="https://mapstodon.space/tags/cryosphere" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cryosphere</span></a></p>

David Reichel<p>Very early season conditions here in Tahoe. Found some faceting snow in a burn hole from the Caldor fire. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/crevassehoar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>crevassehoar</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/surfacehoar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>surfacehoar</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snow</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/laketahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>laketahoe</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SnowScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SnowScience</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/CaldorFire" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CaldorFire</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/california" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>california</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/mountains" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>mountains</span></a></p>
David Reichel<p>Overnight a heavy wet snow fell on top of these still drive shafts for the Nubes lift at Cerro Catedral. When they turned on the lift and the shafts began to spin, the snow stuck to the rotating shafts for at least an hour of operation before sliding off. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snow</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/skilift" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>skilift</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/nubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>nubes</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/cerrocatedral" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cerrocatedral</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/bariloche" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bariloche</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/argentina" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>argentina</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/ski" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ski</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snowboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snowboard</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snownerd" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snownerd</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SnowScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SnowScience</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/plasticity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>plasticity</span></a></p>
David Reichel<p>Intentionally triggered this slide on a small steep slope very close to the Carson Pass trailhead. While shallow the debris did cover the existing skin track. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/carsonpass" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>carsonpass</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/laketahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>laketahoe</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/backcountry" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>backcountry</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/avalancheterrain" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>avalancheterrain</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/avalanche" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>avalanche</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snow</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/windslab" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>windslab</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/stormslab" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>stormslab</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SnowScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SnowScience</span></a></p>
David Reichel<p>Great crew for the Shasta Mountain Guides Level 1 avalanche class this weekend.

David Reichel<p>Found interesting buried surface hoar while ski touring above Truckee today. At least for now it is unreactive but worth monitoring. </p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snow</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/surfacehoar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>surfacehoar</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/backcountry" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>backcountry</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/truckee" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>truckee</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Sierranevada" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Sierranevada</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sierraavalanchecenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>sierraavalanchecenter</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snowscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snowscience</span></a></p>
David Reichel<p>Back home in Tahoe and finished instructing a Level 2 avalanche class with a strong crew. High danger on the last day made for interesting observations like this small slide we intentionally triggered on an innocuous test slope. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/backcountry" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>backcountry</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/laketahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>laketahoe</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/mtrose" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>mtrose</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/nevada" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>nevada</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>snow</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/avalanche" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>avalanche</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/SnowScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SnowScience</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/skiing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>skiing</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/splitboarding" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>splitboarding</span></a></p>
