Got blown off the Onion today. Strong SW winds were actively transporting snow and any exposed terrain was scoured down to the rain crust, which was quite icy in places. Lee features held isolated wind slabs. No signs of recent avalanches, but fresh wind slabs seemed touchy. We found some barely skiable snow on a slightly more sheltered northeast aspect, but stayed away from steep or convex slopes.
