Comments
Morning temps -21 valley bottom and rose to -8 in the afternoon hours. Lots of riders in the area no new avalanche activity noted, with exception of 1 sz two in a short steep convex upper treeline feature suspect rider triggered. Limited travel due to stormy weather. Mod-strong winds from the SW.
