Quick report

Cracking
isolated

Isolated cracking on thin wind blown snow. Sunday's storm added about 6 inches on North, NE aspects above 6800 ft. Must have been a strong N wind on Tues. Stayed on slopes <30 degrees. Dug some hand pits at 7500 ft. on NE aspect. The new snow hasn't bonded, but wasn't slabby in my location.

Avalanche

Several small D1/D2 avys off the tops of South Ridge. From a distance, they appeared to be purpose ski cut. All appeared to run with the Sunday storm cycle.
