Quick report

Sunny and warm day. We skinned and boot-packed up Cache Couloir. Lots of recent avalanche debris in the chute. Even on the shaded north aspects, the snow was surprisingly wet by 12:00. We observed a small, natural wet-loose D1 in a neighboring chute, probably triggered by ice and debris being loosened by solar heating of the rock face.
