Strong south cross slope winds led to two naturals on the BB Knob at 6800'. One N, the other NE. A thin 5cm layer of facets formed last week was the failure plane but the winds were the driver.

A couple inches of new both Sat and Sunday nights. Mod to Strong SW and southerly crossslope winds led to some size 1 to 1.5 naturals down low. Weak snow from last week exists in sheltered terrain but the snow surface landscape is widely variable now.
