Weather

5-10 mph breeze up top

Snowpack

Newer sluffy ones on an east face. A small windslab on skiers right side of a west facing gully. Did kick off a small piece of cornice with a foot down into a SE aspect and it got new snow moving, 20? wide, at a pretty good rate that ran through choke and out into apron below. Did not dig deeper into snowpack but enough to knock you off your feet and wreck your day.

Avalanche

West had 2-4 inches of dust on firm crust
