Meadow Lk Lemhi Range Instability and avalanches

We road into the Meadow Lake Canyon heading up above the lake in the Lemhi Range. Witnessed very sketchy conditions low and higher elevations. Saw 4 avalanches about a week old and many shooting cracks down low and a very nasty 20" think top layer on the snowpack. In that 20" inch layer on top was approx 8" consolidated snow on a 1" think ice layer and another 8-10" of consolidated snow on many feet of faceted sugar snow. We had shooting cracks hitting the cut banks of the road, heading up to around 9,000 ft where we started running into about week old slides. Slides were size 2 to 3. Slides were noted on NE, SE, NW, facing slopes. The bigger slides were at 10,000 feet.
