Snowpack

Had a couple collapses on wind slab right as we gained the saddle / ridge around 11500. Looked like S wind had blown in snow there yesterday and we observed wind moving snow up slope from the N. No other collapses on the skin up from the cabin or along low angle slopes leading to the saddle (however we were often using previous skin track). skin and ski tracks from yesterday were slightly filled and blown in. skiing was trap door. HS averages between 60 and 90 cm.
