Weather
NNE winds and light wind transport eased and temperatures warmed as the day progressed
Snowpack
Triggered small WL on descent as snow warmed. No other signs of instability. Surface conditions ran the gamut from settled powder to hard windpack to supportable and unsupportable MF. SH formed in isolated favored locations. A test pit (E at 11,000', HS 124cm) produced CTMQ2 at the most recent new/old snow interface and CTHQ1 at the top of the basal facet layer (37cm above ground). ECTX at this location.
