Weather
Mostly clear and warm. Generally calm winds with some light gusts.
Snowpack
On northerly slopes below tree line the snowpack is thin and faceting out. No longer very supportable to skis where a couple of days ago it was. Above tree line the snowpack is variable with measured depths ranging from 0cm to 105cm. Looking for a slab, I dug in the most wind loaded spot on the slope, ENE aspect. A solid slab was present and propagated on a facet/crust combo near the ground, see pit for details.
Avalanche
