Debris carried over the road, which is unusual for this area. There was debris piled up at the bottom of every slide path off of Bob's knob. There was an extensive natural cycle in the last 24 hours at mid elevations. We also observed several large crowns and slides on the next knob to the north. One looked to have broken almost to the ground.
I didn't get close enough to examine what weak layer these broke on, but from viewing the crowns from distance, it looked variable from 4+ feet deep (buried weak layer) to 1-2 feet deep (new snow). We stuck to low angle slopes and found a safe route and fun riding conditions.
