Quick report
- Cracking
- isolated
No substantial snow until 4500'. Ridgelines in the alpine had widespread wind effect, stiffer slabs up high with isolated cracking, no real propagation. By mid afternoon it was easy to trigger wet slides large enough to do some real damage on solar slopes, running on the ice crust and entraining all the new snow.
Avalanche
Saw some larger (D2) wet slabs that released recently, triggered some long running wet loose sloughs that picked up serious momentum.
