Comment
The Churchill paths were blower today. Intense snow transport along the parkway, and moderate winds with strong gusts developing in the PM. Snow-nados moving snow around below treeline by 1300. We poked into the alpine to 2180ish meters, stopping below the developing wind slabs. No signs of instability, but several older size 1 wind slabs noted near ridge top in the alpine.
