Weather

hot, hot, hot pow on the way down, calm and sunny with strong winds in the alpine. Heavy plumes coming off many peaks in the W. Elks

Snowpack

Previously heavily windloaded, 4-6" of new snow. Tricky layer ID. Really dense snow made for heinous solo pit dig.

Avalanche

Just the previously reported Bear creek, plenty of ski tracks into Bear Gulch
