Calm and overcast most of the day though clouds were moving fast along the ridge. Sun came out around 4 as the clouds blew off.
Snowpack
Crust transitioned to 6" powder around 4500' increasing to 2' around 6000'. Pleasant turns were had in mellow terrain.

It appeared that effectively all gully systems in the valley had slid during the last storm with D1 and D2 results. Most had obvious crowns mid-gully. Hard to see further up the valley in the poor light.
