Weather

Morning, sunny with clear skies.

Snowpack

About 2-3 cm melt/freeze crust was easy to punch through with ski poles but could only get about 6-8 cm deeper than that. Was consistent until sun hit softened the crust about 10:00.

Avalanche

No avalanches observed. No rollerballs or pinwheels in the morning. Decent cornice on the ridge (photo), but saw no movement.
