Quick report
For the most part, winds stayed out of the valley we traveled in. We tested a few steeper slopes and did not find anything reactive to ski cuts. Far away, we saw what looked like possible point releases on Tye Peak and a few on Rock Mt west face. Rock Mt appeared clean when we ascended for our first lap, so it likely occurred today around 1 pm. We saw some density changes lower down and up high, a few pockets of stiff wind slabs, isolated to ridgelines and prominent features.
