<p>Unike yesterday where I saw nothing, today I did see a little cracking (not shooting) at one spot (heavans gate) on a n facing face 10000' where the wind had drifted some snow from ene facing slope. slab/drifts encountered appeared fresh and was not very thick (3-6"). Suspect not much of a load.</p>

clear cold night- snow felt drier than yesterday's cream -diurnal recristalization-ticking bottom a bit more than yesterday. still some real powder with no crust to be had on due north shaded between 9-10,000. snow has been very very fast. had more fun lower angle than in the wolverine cirque where I was bottom feeding a bit. (less edging=more floating powder). Nice weather, decent snow!
