We ride the fingers in blue River, below 1500m was pretty wet, raining around 1100 and below. Snow was wet until 1500m. Noticeable crust about 30 cm. Down forming that persistent slab problem. We sled cut a small slip, Northeast facing, and got some shooting cracks but nothing slid. On a similar slope near the top we heard one whumpf. We stayed away from pretty much anything above tree line.
