Mellow day and full profile at Opal hills. There was protected snow in the low angled trees with pockets of thick, fragile wind slabs. Wind slabs were breakable with stomping force and cracking was present (photo). Cold morning that warmed up, no wind and clear skies. No signs of avalanches anywhere.
