Weather

Overcast, high 20s, calm

Snowpack

Touchy BTL in areas that held old, rotten snow prior to the recent accumulation. Shooting cracks propagated over a hundred feet at times. It was easy to trigger collapses that wrapped around features on differing aspects on creek embankments.

Avalanche

Looked like SS-ASr-R1-D1-I, <TL, SE Aspect, Crown ~4"
