Weather
air temp (F): ~25; cloud cover: few; wind loading: light; recent snowfall (cm): n/a; snow avail for transport: small smounts
Snowpack
Our two aggressive ski cuts produced some surface sluffing and one small "slab" about a meter wide and breaking 15 cm down on the density change between F and 4F hardness snow, likely from the small bit of wind loading. We noticed extensive cracking on this layer wherever the mostly light ridgetop wind had loaded the slope, and one large collapse.
Avalanche
No significant avalanches noted on Coney's, but with the clear day we saw evidence of slides on many of the mountains surrounding us, mostly on SE-NE aspects.
