Weather

4 inches of recent snow. No wind BTL. Gusty winds NTL.

Snowpack

Very weak faceted snow makes up the bottom 20 to 30 cm of the 50 to 60 cm deep snowpack. The slab on top of the faceted snow has lost strength since I was out here last week and is much less cohesive.

Avalanche

It was hard to see with flat light and limited vis.
