Noticed a fresh wet slide in the Y couloir this afternoon on my way down LCC, must have happened sometime between 9:30am and 2:00pm. On my way up the canyon the apron of the Y was dirty melt freeze crust with old tracks, on my way down the apron was covered in with fresh wet slide debris. Looked like the whole chute cleaned out to the old melt freeze crust from last week. Things got quite warm today, even high North was damp with rollerballs, quite a bit of wet activity today in the top of LCC. Would expect more tomorrow with continued heating and a marginal refreeze tonight.
