Be safe traveling out there. I saw many groups working there way up the drainage today. I'd recommend knowing where you are going. More people walking over each other may trigger an aspect that you are near.

Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p>Pretty much all the Northerly facing aspects ( NE,N,NW) had collapsing and whomping on even the low angle areas. I didn't even attempt to see what the glades were like today. Heavy wind loading was found even in the trees. When the sun was touching the new snow, several stuffs began. Route execution is crucial.</p> <p>The snow has started to bond well to itself but not the old snow. I saw several small slabs that other people had triggered the days before. </p>
