We experienced many settlements again today, from the Cold Sweat/No Socks area to the Dome/Waterfall area along with shooting cracks and one size 0.5 (that one was on lower Waterfall trees). Very big and spooky whumpfings in most open spaces. Fast sluff and cracking on steeper pitches. The new load is definitely settling and moving on the firmer surfaces underneath. Again today, the day was relatively calm and snowy in lower elevations, but windy on ridgetops (N winds) with some snow transport and subtle change in the snow surface.
