Popped out a little wind slab while traversing around one of the steeper little gullies on Catherine’s. It took all the new snow below it down to the gully with it. Pretty minor avy but I figured I’d report it to show just the general instability atm.
Most of the snow is low density and not consolidated yet but where the wind has effected it it has slabbed up a touch more and is a little touchy on the weak underlayers where they exist.
