Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 34,000 snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Yeah, but it depends on conditions before, during and after the dump. If the dump falls on an slope that has been flushed and is still moist, there is more chance of a the layers not bonding and there being a big slide, resulting in a big debris field in the gully at the bottom. If there's not been any flushing action going on there may be residual from a previous dump, and depending on the consistency of that dump, the new layer may have a better chance of bonding to the previously deposited layer and this may prevent any type of slide occurring. Also, be careful that the dump didn't follow some strong wind as this may deposit more of the dump on the lee side and some unexpected slab dumpage may occur.

Best go prepared Shocked
