Weather

Yesterday saw moderate to heavy snowfall for most of the day, but Light to moderate wind westerly.

Snowpack

About 15" new above 9800'. Mostly sluffing on N apects, but new snow was not bonding well to the sun crust on S aspects 9800 and above. We had numerous skier triggered releases. Most were small pockets on steep convexities, but several were remotely triggered from a good distance, and several naturals in the same area. Sorry we couldn't get this to you last night, but we were full up with other madness.
