Nice day at Bald Hills. We saw evidence of a previous natural avalanche cycle up to size 2. There was a breakable sun crust everywhere except for northerly aspects but there hasn't been much wind, so the skiing is still quite good. On top of this sun crust is new surface hoar layer up to 1 cm that will likely become a problem when when it gets buried.
We dug a full snow profile at tree line and had sudden collapse results down 70 cm on facets. Overall the snowpack wasn't very confidence inspiring. In most places if you step off your skis you end up sinking in to your waist. We stuck to mellow slopes and avoided avalanche terrain.
