Weather
Started sunny but clouds started building in front of the incoming storm. Started raining in valley bottom around 1:30pm. Fine spring weather if you can get the timing down.
Snowpack
North facing slopes were crusty on top due to warm temps over the last few weeks, however very steep north faces were still holding cold snow. South facing slopes were supportive melt freeze crusts. Snow in the creek bottoms was pretty manky and stuck to skins and skis pretty readily. No pits or tests completed on the tour.
Avalanche
