Today on our drive we saw a size 1 wind slab avalanche in paddys peak area , on a steep shoulder feature in a gully. We avoided wind slab in alpine and stuck to sheltered areas where the snow was best. 10 new centimeters fell overnight with south west winds. We took a chance with the visibility and poked back to Big Blue area. There was 20-40 centimeters of beautiful snow in the valleys. We found no signs of propagation potential in our snowpits on a south and east aspect around 1600 meters. There are a few layers of concern but they were stubborn.
