We rode the Jubilee Bowl. There were some hollow sounds to the wind slab at the top of the West ridge. Small surface hoar on the top of the snow that were starting to break down from the sun by the time we began skiing down the Jubilee Bowl.

We observed the remains of a cornice break and small slide on the Eastern slopes of Mount Murray on Sunday, February 24th. It appears to have been since the last storm (approx Thursday), but does not appear to have been from Sunday. See attached photos.
