Weather
Sunny with a moderate westerly breeze. Noticeable snow transport along ridgelines in the distance.
Snowpack
Isolated, wind-loaded terrain features on north-facing slopes showed some cracking up to four or five feet away from my skis. There isn't a continuous slab yet with the new snow but a warm day for the new snow to settle and stiffen then several feet on top of it will get us there.
Avalanche
No avalanches were observed.
