Comments
We saw a Wind slab avalanche, from the last 48 hrs, on a NW aspect at 1150 meters in a rocky shallow pocket. Besides the one wind slab, there were no new avalanches or cornice releases on our travels around Nadahini. The wind has pressed surfaces, but the snow is still soft in protected areas. Our best snow was found on an East aspect, on the glacier in a sheltered area. You can find anywhere from 10-25 centimeters of soft snow, blown in from the wind in places. The wind was blowing most of the day from the SW, transporting snow and building wind slab. We gave cornices a wide berth, and avoided sunny slopes in the pm. There was a little bit of pinwheeling in the afternoon off of steep terrain on South aspects.
