Quick Observation
The riding was excellent! We saw one tiny slab avalanche in the storm snow, looked like it was skier triggered on Saturday, only ran about 15 meters, somebody skied out the bottom of it. That was on the line of trees that climbs to climber's left above the Fingers, with a rollover below (to climbers left) of the trees. Other than that we saw no signs of instability. Hand shears in the Fingers looked like the storm snow was bonding well, no clean shears or easy releases. Lots of sluffing of storm snow in the Fingers as we were the first skiers in, but no slabs.
