Rapid Warming
Red Flags Comment
<p>Warming was the only real red flag today, but that condition was easily avoided by changing aspect.</p>

​Stunning day looking over the big peaks to the east of the range.

The leading edge of our next storm sliding in from the south.

Instability Comment
<p>The Wed/Thurs storm didn't produce big water amounts, but I think there are still plenty of places you could still trigger an avalanche. Steep, rocky, shallow zones along with repeaters that have remained thin all season.</p>

Soft, spongy powder in the AM, took on heat pretty rapidly as seen by the roller balls next to these ski tracks. Sun is high-in-the-sky.
