Multiple loose dry avalanches observed out of steep, cliffy terrain on NW aspects from new storm snow in the area (approx 15cm to 25cm). Several crown lines present, likely triggered by the loose dry activity, however most crown lines appeared quite shallow and did not run far. No snowballing or other signs of instability observed on solar aspects.
Weather
Poor visibility to start the day, followed by sun in the afternoon. Low winds with temps remaining below zero.
