Quick report

Cracking
specific

Sufficient sunshine (increasingly filtered) calm winds kept conditions cool but please until mid afternoon when cloud cover and winds picked up a bit seemingly including a few small flurries. Noticed a lot of shooting cracks on specific wind loaded features on the glacier/moraine and windward canyon lips by both ski and bootpack 6500-9000’. Some cohesive chunks popping out implied slab formation risk. Selective ski quality was reasonable good (if a bit dense) on glacier and gully and very good N/BTL between Timberline boundary and Little Zigzag Canyon.
