Weather

Very warm and sunny with a light breeze near both summits.

Snowpack

On 6/7 snow was frozen at 9am while skinning up south aspect on Twining. On 6/8 I found a 2-3” not fully frozen melt freeze crust on south aspects on Blarney. When skiing down Blarney at 10am, the upper section was corn and the lower section was wet and trap door in thin spots.

Avalanche

I observed multiple avalanches that appeared to be several days old.
