Red Flags Comment
<p>Off the ridges, winds were still transporting snow but the direction was more sporadic. Ridgeline winds were S-W. Cornices were growing, leaning and sensitive. </p>

Pictured below is the wind slab into main days

Pictured below is the slide off flagstaff shoulder, below that is a shooting crack.

Instability Comment
<p>Not much action in the new snow not affected by wind. Plenty of wind slab action. </p>

The New snow was mostly light and fluffy and fun to ride however it was moving quickly. Plenty of places near ridges scoured and lee slopes deeply loaded. I dug down to the new old interface on N @9200' and found rounding nsf gaining strength.
