Comments

HS 50 cm in lee feature at treeline, winds light from the north, -15 at the parking lot. Nov. 4 crust buried ~5cm deep in the trees, and found sporadically at upper treeline down ~10 cm. Windslabs on E/SE aspects at treeline varied from thin and breakable to 5+ cm and supportive. No stability concerns noted on the mellow slopes we rode.

Witnessed a size 1.5 serac fall looker's right of Slipstream. No slab triggered, loose snow made it to the lower fan.
