Weather

Clear, Breezy, 15F, 11.5K NE-SE NTL and >TL.

Snowpack

Surface was heavily wind affected varying from nearly bulletproof to a breakable crust. >TL snow was very eroded to the point skiing was not ideal.

Avalanche

Observed an old crown on a NE aspect >TL. Hard to tell when it slid, but from the recent heavy winds the start zone and path were almost completely filled in.
