At the top of Summit Creek above glaciers you can see lots of debris, evidence of extensive wet loose activity up to sz 1.5 in the last couple days. Friday night was a hard refreeze but it got warm really warm previous afternoons in the alpine. Solar aspects have run wet loose and the steepest rocky ridges that have been rimed all winter are showing bare rock. Sunny morning, then light N wind and clouded over with flat light in the afternoon. Freezing level around 1500m. 5 C at highway level at 4pm.
