Poked around toward cloudburst bench route off chance creek. Broke trail to ~1400m. Didn’t notice any instabilities BTL but they sure showed up at TL. Slabby and moderately wind affected on northern slopes. didn’t feel super reactive, but snow definitely needs more time to settle. Hoar growing in the meadows. -5C at the car. Bright blue skies looking behind us on S facing slopes, but we were fully sheltered from the sun all day once out of the meadows.
