Weather

Clear, calm winds, quickly warmed to spring-like temps. No snow transport.

Snowpack

2-5" from yesterday's storm. No signs of windslab formation along high ridgelines. Storm snow settled and became moist quickly on southerly aspects and was poorly bonded to underlying crust.

Avalanche

New deep slab on Mt. Owen and lots of small loose snow avalanches. See details.
