A big change from the low density pow skiing of yesterday! A low visibility storm day at White Pass. Temps warmed overnight to -4c. The new snow overnight felt upside down and heavy. Really variable ski pen at upper treeline. Winds picked up with wind loading through the day. In simple terrain at tree line we saw evidence of size 1 natural avalanches and cornice failures. It was too socked in for any alpine obs but we did hear two natural avalanches.
