Quick report

Partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies Light to no wind (no snow moving) Temperature estimated in the 20s HSN 40 cm within the last 48 hours Many signs of cracking and old avalanches in the storm slab. Interestingly most of the natural avalanches were only a few centimeters deep. Seemed to be releasing in a density change within the storm snow. Lots of cracks and several natural shallow soft slabs. We skied 30+ degrees and saw no signs of instability but everywhere we travelled had skier traffic this season.
