Quick report
We thought we were going to have a nice day for a walk. Instead, we had a mostly cloudy day for a walk. Traveling at lower elevations, especially getting up Mt. Snoqualmie, was challenging. Shaded areas under tree cover at lower elevations were icy and firm; open areas had edgeable or moist snow to help with skinning.
Snow on most aspects was at least a little moist from Monday's warmup. It was noticeably drier and well-settled on shaded slopes, but still contained rollerballs from tree or rock sheds. If you could find smooth snow without obstacles, skiing was acceptable, but not particularly good.
An interesting note, it looked like there was fresh debris on top of the AR debris coming through the choke of Chair Peak to the lower apron. The skies clouded back up before I could confirm, however.
Widespread rollerballing and wet avalanche activity - mostly from yesterday, but some new. On our exit via the Chair Peak apron, the snow was getting ripe and we were able to easily push moist snow on unsupported features.Weather
We never were able to quite shake the clouds today. Obscured skies prevailed with a slight breeze on ridgelines. As we were leaving the field early afternoon, blue skies taunted us as the clouds started to dissipate.
Snowpack
I found anywhere from 2-10cm of new snow from Monday's storm.
Snow over the EFC measured roughly 35-40 cm in undisturbed locations at mid-elevations.
Most locations contain at least 1 crust in the snow above the EFC, sun-exposed slopes contain multiple.
Avalanche
My partner triggered a small pocket of wind slab snow in a rocky chute. It failed on the EFC and the crown was roughly 10" deep. I didn't climb back up to investigate the failure grains.
