Traveled to the top of Radio Tower. Wind slabs observed above 9k in unsheltered terrain. Did some more investigating on a S facing aspect at 10'600. Both the wind slab and persistent slab expressed reactivity but minimal propagation at this location. By 1-2PM the recepie for wet loose on S/SW facing aspects was observed at 10'000 and lower. Lower on Radio Tower around 10'300 on a SW aspect a crown was visible with recent debris. Likely a natural release during the last storm cycle. Short steep pitch >D1. From the summit of Radio Tower avalanche activity was observed on the N facing aspect. The crown was not visible fro the summit but debris was visible indicated a large slide. Wind slab and persistent slab both present and reactive.
