Weather
Toured from 0615 to 0900. Sky: FEW ; Precip: None ; Wind: calm ; Temp: 10-15F
Snowpack
HS 125-140cm (BTL, N aspect), HS 150-170+cm (NTL, N aspect). Sun crust on E/SE aspects. No evidence of a wind slab on N/NE aspects NTL. Minor wind crust observed in isolated areas (no propagation)
Avalanche
Sluffing on a convex roll >40 degrees. Evidence of multiple naturals (most R1.5, D1.5 or less) on both the current creek and second creek headwalls (at least 24-48 hours old). Most looked like point releases or cornice fall with one potential wind slab (hard to tell as the subsequent wind had done a number on the path/debris)
