Quick report

Cracking
isolated
Collapsing
isolated

Thick snow overall. 10" settled. Sun popped out around 12:30 heating stuff up. Open NE facing shot was raked by the wind. Lots of wind ribs. Small collapse cruising the ridge between 7 Bowls and East Bowl. Found instabilities in the new snow that were smaller and easier to manage in windsheltered terrain on East aspect. Two small releases broke at the storm interface on a crust while skiing, second one broke with a ski cut. Both on a 38-degree pitch, give or take.
