Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p>The loose wet that chased my ski tracks down the mountain seemed to be the most concerning. Most wind slabs were fairly small. </p>

I found crusts, damp new snow, and wind boards. I triggered a few small wind slabs ~ 6" and one sizable loose wet point release that entrained enough snow for a 3-4' deep debris pile and ran 400-500' vert on a east aspect.
