Good day on the Feather traverse. No evidence of instability; however, significant snow transport onto North aspects, particularly at ridgeline. Overall, ski conditions were similar to the previous weekend with a crust on east/south aspects and wind affected powder on north aspects. No evidence of significant warming by 3 PM on the aspects we skied, possibly due to intermittent cloud that hung over the area, especially on the south side of the traverse.
