<p>Noticed a few crowns just west of the Hallway in Cardiff that might have released early on 2/22 or the night of 2/21. R1/D1 Other recent avalanches have been observed around Brighton recently. Around 2.25" of H2o from the storm as of 2/23 am. </p>

Snowpack

New storm snow around  33cm in upper LCC. Sluffs noticed in steeper terrain. South aspects at 9200' had 55cm of snow from the last two storms on top of our 35 cm deep pencil hard melt freeze crust layer which developed from our stretch of high pressure last week. Under that were wet grains. Not much energy from ECT's in that location other than showing a density change in the storm snow. Height of snow around 235cm. When you get to 10k on North aspects the wet grains are much less noticeable in the pack under the two most recent storms.
