Weather

Weather: Increasing clouds. Warm temps.

Snowpack

Snowpack: 1″ of settled storm snow, mostly scoured away ATL except in cross loaded drifts up to 3″ or 4″ thick. Some minor rollerballs on cross loaded easterly aspects (see photo), but not enough snow to slide.

Avalanche

Avalanches: Skier triggered a 3″ by 8′ wind slab in a north facing couloir ATL, harmless in size. No other instabilities in steep terrain.
