Good travel around the Gorge. Evidence of an old avalanche cycle from the end of the last storm - this was probably last Saturday or Sunday. No recent avalanches and testing steep rolls gave no results. We tested the interface between the new snow and the crust that was buried on November 27th in several places (this can be found between 30-40 cm below the surface). Generally we found this bond to be good, but I'd have some concern on steep convex slopes with the anticipated warming in the forecast over the next few days. Cloud layer was between 1600 and 1850 m and we saw surface hoar on the surface above 1700 m. Enjoy!
