<p>Snow was powder on west aspect slope with varying depths and layers. Major warming throughout the day from about -25 in the morning to -4 in the afternoon. Heard lots of whumpfing and remotely triggered 2 size 1 slabs. Both start zones were a bit convex, the larger of the two had shallow rocks at the start that were exposed after the slide.</p>
