<p>Observed loose snow sluffs on steep cliffs by lake. Every slope was smoothed out and coated with 2-3' of new snow. Winds were still moving snow along ridgelines. Experienced a collapse on a S facing slope 8900'. Really didn't see much in terms of significant avalanche activity. May have a bit to go before hitting the tipping point though stability test results showed no propagation despite existence of weak snow. Generally more stable than we expected. </p>

DEEP powder snow day. 2-3 feet of new snow above the lake made for exciting riding conditions. Almost too deep to ski as we stayed clear of steep slopes.
