Ascended Flora Peak via the S/SW ridge yesterday. We observed quite a bit of instability due to the rising temperatures and sun. The large open bowl on the south aspect was especially affected with numerous wet loose activities and continuous pinwheeling across major portions of the slope. We stuck to the ridge entirely to avoid it. Wherever we crossed onto the north side we found deeper unconsolidated snow.
