Red Flags Comment
<p>Minor cracking observed on wind loaded ridge lines. </p>

We dug one pit on a NW aspect at 9700' east of the picnic tree. No remarkable test results in the top 100cm. HS was 185. ECTX.

Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p>We didn't dig all the way to the ground but with the poor underlying structure throughout the season this problem won't be going away yet. </p> <p>Plenty of snow available for transport and it was moving along ridge lines today. Mostly light winds with moderate gusts below tree line and strong gusts on top of 10420. </p>
