Quick report

Cracking
isolated

Snow transport at ridge line was present throughout our tour. Old avalanches were present but difficult to date and size due to ongoing snow transport obstructing visibility and redistributing snow. Small isolated cracking was limited to isolated pockets of newly wind drifted snow, we noted wind drifts with depths up to 30cm but most were on the smaller side of 15-20cm. We experienced generally stable avalanche conditions, cracking was limited to isolated pockets of wind deposited snow in the upper 15cm of snow

Avalanche

We observed signs of multiple old avalanches from within the recent loading event. Avalanches were difficult to size and date due to on going wind transport.
