Weather

We assume these were triggered by a skier we talked to on Sunday, 12/11. The weather was partly sunny, probably 25-30 deg. Calm.

Snowpack

The slope is east facing with powder.

Avalanche

5x slides triggered by a solo skier. We encountered him on our way up. He was on his way down. He was up for a day trip, not staying at the hut, and said he had triggered a few small slides. We saw his tracks by the slides.
