Quick report

Traveled through several steep, shallow, shady, and sheltered areas which had previously avalanched that have now lost all structure. The only one steeper than 35 degrees produced a D1 dry loose that ran 200-300 feet and shook small trees. Sheltered areas with a full HS are maintaining structure...for now. Wind exposed areas have isolated wind deposits that range from 4F to P, lots of spatial variability, no signs of instability observed from them.
