Reached PC Ridge around 9:30am and noticed quite a bit of activity in West Monitor. I wasn’t around to witness these happen but whether intentional or not, all looked to be human triggered. (See photo with tracks going in) Although the slides were maybe 6-10”, they were wide and entrained quite a bit of snow. Possibly some very ambitious folks up earlier than myself set these off but more likely they happened yesterday. I wasn’t finding things to be as reactive in the steeper part of South Monitor. I was getting decent, but manageable sloughs in No Name with afternoon heating. Warmed up enough for me to call it a day by 1:00pm. 1st 3 photos of W. Monitor, 4th of minor sloughing in S. Monitor, 5th of more active sloughing in No Name...
