Quick report

We toured up to Herman Saddle, down into Iceberg Bowl and returned. Snow was generally powdery with slightly harder consolidated snow in the top few inches. A couple of hand shears showed that upper layer was willing to shear off if pulled on.

Avalanche

We saw no avalanches or cracking in the mellow terrain we were on, but on our way home did observe debris from a very small wind slab in the gully leading up to the saddle and debris from four D1.5-2 releases under the N-facing steeps on the S side of Bagley basin. See attached photos.
