Weather

Mostly clear skies for morning with gradually increasing high and mid level clouds throughout afternoon. calm winds on ridgeline and mild, baselayer temps.

Snowpack

No tests performed, no real layers on concern in terrain traveled. Overlying slab continues to erode and facet, diminishing a more defined PSa structure. mixture of <1mm surface facets, preserved nicely from skiff of snow we received overnight/early this morning. Generally pleasant cold, dry snow found on low angled aspects traveled.

Avalanche

No new avalanches. Some minor dry loose and wet loose sluffs from rocks in extreme terrain over the last several days.
