Weather

Just a trace of new snow mixed with some dust. Temps remained cool with moderate SW winds. Clouds increased as the day progressed leading to cloudy skies by afternoon.

Snowpack

No signs of instability and no observed recent avalanche activity. The last avalanche activity occurred two weeks ago and recent snowpack tests on ESE and NNE aspects at 11,200' showed CT failures about 60cm below the surface, but ECT tests were negative/no propagation.
