too bad any spot youd probably hike to build a booter (booterville/grandma's cabin) isnt in any sort of danger zone!

Mt. Baker now has 60" at the base and over 75" on top giving it the highest snowbase of any ski area in the world right now.

hey kunz, no need to hate like that....if we were filming, we would hike to some places which right now would prbly be avalanche prone....so we are not hiking there as of now, later in the season though

since there is no icy rain layer under all this pow, the avalance danger is relativly consolidated. The main worry is a ground slide where the snow slides from the ground. this happens where there isn't much shrubbery on the gorund
