Correction: this slide was from Feb 25th. Photos 2&3 from B Smith.
The snow didn't get very wet today. Decent winds and spotty clouds kept it from getting too warm. No pinwheels seen, just this very small loose wet avalanche. There were ski tracks above it, and I assume it was skier triggered.
Skiing down produced (at around 3pm) produced plenty of roller balls but none would get bigger as they rolled downhill.
