Great day at spearhead and phalanx glacier. Amazing snow quality with some dry powder on most northernly aspects. Wind was moderate all day and there were some dry loose really small slides on steep slopes. Snow felt stable and did not notice any signs of deeper instabilities on the spearhead and phalanx. There were some small wet loose slides on the west side of the poop chutes on sun exposed areas later in the day. Overall amazing day in the blackcomb backcountry.
