Quick report

Toured towards Mt Morgan from Rock Creek. N/NE winds started up in the am. Saw many slab avalanches. Variety of surfaces: powder, mild melt crust, wind slab. Ski pole probing showed some areas of consistent density, others with presumed weak facet layer. Turned around at 11300' as the wind picked up (and blew us over) at 12:00. Snow started around 13:00
