Quick report
Minimal wind in Garnet Canyon. Hardly even a breeze the whole day. Snow surfaces below 8,000ft were damp and getting mushier by the foot as we descended back to Bradley Lake ~3pm. The wet slab at the Mouth of Garnet seemed to move faster because of the slick crust underneath. Sleet falling below 7,000ft.

While skiing down the apron of the Red Sentinel, trigged a storm slab ~3-6” deep. We had some localized cracking at the saddle entering the line but nothing propagating far. Sluff was sluggish but moving.
