You can drive to 42.5 no problems, no further. Lots of wet loose on the headwall. North facing slopes riding deep pow Anywhere that got sun was wet and heavy. We triggered 2 wet loose avalanches on a NW slope, took one person for a ride. Crust was forming where sun hit in the morning and was shaded by the afternoon. Was a fun day! Snow quality likely to quickly deteriorate with the warm temps.
