About -6 as we left the car at 8:30 in the morning, somewhere around 0 when we returned to the car at 2:30. Watched lots of wind blowing NE pulling snow off mt fairview on the approach. Saw 2 fairly large avalanches come off mt fairview while gearing up
Avalanche
Triggered by large gusts of wind, ran from quite high up all the way to the valley bottom. Evidence of a few small slabs that let go much closer to the valley, right when the spindrift was pouring in
