[MCR] Bulkley Valley

At 1100 m on Hudson Bay Mountain, 20 cm of snow fell today at a temperature of
-2 degrees and southerly winds. Another 15 to 20 are forecast for the valley
bottom overnight. I expect large natural avalanches overnight, particularly if
the temperature rises as forecast. It was too socked in today to see anything.
Some avalanches could run to the valley bottom on the debris that filled the
paths in on 28 October.
