Comments
We explored the local mountain today and observed several reverse-loaded wind slab/ wet loose avalanches likely from yesterday. No clouds all day and a consistent rise in temperature kept us away from steep sunny slopes after mid day. Skiing on N faces was still powder and anything else had some sort of wind affect or sun crust . We witnessed no signs of instability today and had no results on a hand sheer at 1900m on S aspect around 11am.
