Snowpack
cold and breezy, but light snowfall cleared out early and views were great. Kept to the mellowest terrain there is (with a lot of other people! no tracks anywhere else to be seen) and found some good snow in the N-W trees... That said, triggered a pocket SE slab remotely, from about 50' away, 1-2' deep, about 75' wide and guessing at 200' vertical or so.. touchy. Saw a significant natural in Riley Boy slide path, generally E facing from treeline. Also got a good close up look at recent hucker-triggered wide and impressive slab on N slope in US Basin
