Wind transport at ridgeline was visable and lighter at treeline. The absence of snow on the trees over the whole Hankin area suggested wind from last night had been significant, as they were loaded yesterday afternoon and the solar hadn't been that significant.

Avalanche

Couldn't see if cornice failure was the trigger, but seems likely based on location. A few smaller slides from recent days on the N to NE aspects of the bowl were also evident.
