Weather

Getting warmer but not super hot. Didn't feel warmer all of sudden.

Snowpack

Snow on approach not fully frozen early morning. Wet but supportable. Felt surprisingly sticky skiing down to avalanche debris, and got stickier and stickier below that.

Avalanche

Last person in party of 3 buried to waist in toe of debris (looker's right side) while skinning up standard ascent route.
