Weather
Moderate snowfall, light to moderate westerly winds, some variable directions as we moved through terrain. Overcast.
Snowpack
About 6" of new snow on the firm interfaces left over from our recent dryspell, up to 10 or 12" in drifted gullies. New snow is bonding poorly to the Jan 10th interface.
Avalanche
Touchy windslabs in crossloaded gullies, 4-8" thick, a few up to 10" thick. We skier triggered over a dozen soft slabs, running on meltfreeze crusts on southerly aspects and windhardened surfaces on northerly aspects. They weren't running far or propagating wide distances, but they were increasing in size through the day. SS-ASc-R1-D1-I
