Snowpack

Quite a bit of new snow overnight with snow falling heavily (4-5cm/hr). Upslope wind from the north creating strange features in North facing gullies with lighter winds from the south at the ridgetop.

Avalanche

Two small skier triggered avalanches off North aspects of Round Mountain on fairly steep convexities. Neither ran far but were enough to knock a person over potentially. Some shooting cracks in the area.
