- <p>New snow isn't bonded well to old snow surface, although the few small slides I triggered were a little hesitant to get moving after they intially failed.</p>
Small avalanche intentionally triggered on a small gully sidewall.

- Instability Comment
- <p>Sensitive wind slabs 4-12" deep, some breaking up to 25' remotely, found in multiple elevation bands on NE through SE slopes. I suspect these will get more sensitive and reactive as the load increases tonight. </p>
Top 3" were graupel, mix of rimed forms below that. Awesome fast skiing.
