Quick report

The 4/7 persistant weak layer is still reactive, be aware of this before venturing into avalanche terrain. There were several human triggered avalanches today that didn't result in issues with good terrain selection. Be aware how close you are to the runout, keep one person on a slope at a time, and choose terrain carefuly.

The clouds from the first half of the day broke midday and gave us clear skies, light wind, and no precip.

Snowpack

The persistant weak layer buried on 4/7 is still reactive. The farther south you are in the range the less snow from this storm and a smaller slab. Around the Tit about 15cm and Gulkana and College around 30cm.

Avalanche

Observed 3 human triggered avalanches today and a couple natural. All D1-1.5 on varying aspects breaking at the weak layer underneath the new snow. One wet loose avalanche was observed on a lower elevation solar aspect.
