Blustery, windy day in White Pine. Saw this SS-N-R2,D2 on Lake Peak at around 10:30. Despite the slabby nature of the new windblown snow, we saw no other slides and few other signs of instability. Still finding lots of variability in the crust facet combinations and this alone seems to warrant extra caution. Still not really that much of a load on any of these weaknesses.
