Quick report

We been camping and touring around Table and watching for storms come and go. Friday: with a lot of the wet snow falling down over the crust. We found no signs of instability after doing multiple test slopes. Saturday: blue bird day. We found good snow over the old crust. No signs of cracking or collapsing. Sunday: we started seeing a lot of loading from south over cols. Some winds slabs were present. Many of them got a pretty dense 1 in hard pack on top. Some isolated cracking. Monday: it was raining/flurries all night with some very strong wind gusts. We heard few distant avalanches in the morning. On a way back we found wet snow and thin rain crust. Did a snow pit S accent. Old crust, pencil hard, wet. Granulated wet snow underneath. Dense and wet snow over, both fist hard. Saw debris from overnight wet loose avalanches (R3D1) with a staring zones at the very steep terrain. Left area 1200 when rain started turning into the snow.
