Comments
Quick trip up to Cardiac bowl.
Two recent size 1-1.5 windslabs on SE aspect of Idiot Knob on open slope/open trees.
One size 2 with crown halfway up one of the N/NW asp Cardiac chutes.
Snow was warm and heavy even at treeline. Variable wind crust at TL. Pole probed and exposed upper ~1.5m of snowpack on an East aspect at TL (Idiot Uptrack). Felt like mostly facets underneath heavy storm snow.
