Weather

1 degree at car at 7:30am, highs for the day in the teens. Steady W/NW wind with gusts into the high teens.

Snowpack

Touchy! One whumph while touring up on flat terrain. Decent coverage though still some rogue sharks lurking.

Avalanche

We believe we remotely triggered these two avalanches on windloaded E facing slopes with convex rollovers and natural trigger points.
