Numerous size 1-2 slides have come down from rocky and wind loaded terrain on all aspects surrounding Fraser Lake. Wind transported snow and new snow from last week appear to be bonding poorly to the old surface layer. Several fracture lines along north facing ridges spanned 100-200+ yards with slides running to valley. Wind blew consistently with direction changing throughout the day. Snow conditions were good from mid-mountain into the lower trees on Fraser Chutes.
