Evidence of very small slides and glide cracking all over grizzly shoulder. The new snow is not bonding to the most recent slabs. In the one picture I submitted you can see all the cracking in a mellow treed slope. That being said the actual skiing was surprisingly good, no skiier trigger slides, only managing skiff while in open treed areas. While skiing and skinning we could hear 6+ avalanches else where in the pass(possibly off Cheops).
