Quick report

Observed wind loading on NE aspects above 10,000 feet. Noted two recent avalanches on the Middle Glacier at ~12,000 feet and the Grand at ~11,800 feet. SE aspects in upper elevations lacked sun crusts, with little transportable snow. Snow depths in the upper 50-100 feet of Red Sentinel ranged from 90cm-140cm skiers left to right. Good skiing in upper elevations where coverage was adequate. Sun crust was felt around 7,700 feet, primarily on SE aspects during descent.
