It was our first tour out without a guide, so stayed very mellow and only toured on simple terrain or inbounds (E side of Flute, and Lesser Flute-Inbounds). Conditions seemed stable, but take that with a grain of salt since we are new to touring, and we saw no signs of recent avalanches.
Snowpack
Performed an ECT and CT, see picture. CT had many results, with what I believed was SC characteristics (we just did our ASTs so take this report with a grain of salt). We then performed an ECT with no propagating results. The density of the snowpack was right side up.
