Weather

About 10 degrees at 7am, but warmed up 10-15 degrees in the next couple of hours.

Snowpack

Snowpack is pretty crusty about 4-6 inches due to wind.

Avalanche

Elevation : About 11,900 Aspect: : Northeast facing Looks like skier triggered from the attached picture. Note the tracks on the left of the picture where most people were skiing and note the tracks off of the convex roller when slide triggered below rocks. I was there early, so I suspect avalanche was on Saturday. Guessing R3 / D2. Wind slabs looked a couple of feet by a couple of feet in size from afar.
