Had a nice tour up boulder and deception pass. Heard three avalanches release likely on the other side of Mount Richardson/Ptarmigan Peak early early/mid afternoon. Lots of slides on Ricahrdson, Pika and Ptarmigan, size 1-2 in last 48 hours. Lots of pinwheels. Managed a few turns on deception pass in very mellow terrain, snow was pretty heavy and sticky. Don't forget the Sunscreen.. our group are all now sporting red and white raccoon masks.
