Weather

Warm and mostly blue sky day. Clouded up a little in the afternoon. Light north winds, but not very strong.

Snowpack

Snowpack supportive on skies, but boot penetration to the ground everywhere I traveled. Still haven't developed a cohesive slab, but lots of new snow.

Avalanche

Several small Wind Slab avalanches. One near Uneva Peak, the other along CO91.
