  Wind slabs exist lee aspects at treeline and alpine locations. Recent winds were Northerly so watch for reverse loading. No natural avalanches have been noted on this layer but bonds have not been tested.

  The sun is expected Friday into Sunday and it packs a punch. Depending on variables such as overnight temperatures, previous day temperatures, cloud cover, wind cooling effect, loose wet avalanches can occur rapidly. Expect activity of this nature.
