We observed evidence of significant avalanche activity in this region from this past weekends storm, to sz 2.5. Mostly wind slabs from loaded alpine features, but also some big Persistent slabs at TL and below that likely failed on surface hoar. The crowns were up to 50cm thick with nice propagation! We did not dig down to look for the surface hoar.
