<p>I only experienced c/c in the meadow out below east Kessler. Recent slide - Sound of Music along PC ridge today.</p>

Went to look at the recently buried snow surface weaknesses from the past week.

Buried rounding facets exist from both a couple days ago and a week ago and are noted in snowpits and with testing but I do not think they will be a player with subsequent loading.

Snowpack

Snow began by about 4pm; just a trace by the time we left.  2" is from Sunday.

Quite good skiing on low angle terrain.
