Weather

Weather was stable for most of the day, with calm winds coming from the west. Clear skies with no precipitation. 11,000 feet and above.

Snowpack

The snow pack seems to be healing, however the base layer remains to have depth hoar and faced crystals around 2mm. On N-NE aspects there was a wind slab/ breakable crust at or above tree line. Below tree line, the crust and slab were not observable. On S-SW slopes there was blowing snow, but with no observable curst at or above tree line.

Avalanche

Did not observe any avalanches.
