Snowpack
Skied a northeastern aspect of Coon, 15cm on a supportive crust. Dipping off the ridge and onto a more easterly aspect at maybe 10,500 the snowpack felt like more of a cohesive slab so we returned to skiing the shallow ridge. Lower down and back onto the northeastern aspect we again skied facets to the ground.
Avalanche
Top of climax northeast aspect found unconsolidated facets to the ground. Significant sluffing which ran with noteworthy energy the length of the upper chute until it chokes out in aspens.
