Comments

Snowing consistently during our day on Eagle Ridge and Avalanche Crest. No consistent wind but on off moderate at ridge top. Evidence of precocious wind with some sculpting at ridge top. Both lines were SW-SSW. Hand pits showed fist to 4F snow in the top 60cm right side up. No crust issues higher up but was very apparent at lower portion of Avalanche Crest with 20cms above it. Up track is horrid! Way too many bad tracks in various directions.
