Couple laps in the Outlook area. Most notably we had a skier remote size 1 later in the day on a steep unsupported feature at 1900m W asp (see avalanche tab). Saw plenty evidence of wind affect in exposed terrain W-NW as well as the odd whumph in isolated pockets of harder windslab. Overall snow quality was great as long as you steered clear of anything with even a little S in it. Solars definitely have a decent suncrust. Saw pinwheeling and small loose wet avalanches on solar aspects midday. Noted some older (24-48hr) cornice failures which triggered small slabs. Good day in the mountains, still heads up hockey out there.

Avalanche

Unsupported feature directly adjacent to where we skied. No involvement.
