Quick Observation

Several long - 3 to 5m - shooting cracks on convex rolls. Roughly NW aspects. 10 to 20cm deep. Unsure of angle but not overly steep. Resting on decomposing fragments - did not look like facets. Also triggered a small wind slab on moderate terrain that had been extensively skied (likely on the weekend) cracking was obvious.

Weather

Saw moderate wind transport and significant wind affected snow on rainbow mountain .
