Numerous avalanches on all aspects were easily triggered. Inverted snow fell upon aspect and elevation dependent melt/freeze crust, surface hoar, and rime crust in some areas. The biggest slide our party triggered was about 2 in. to 1.5 feet deep on a 35+ degree slope, 50 ft. wide, and ran about 500 vertical ft. down west facing Holy Toldeo. With more heavy snow/graupel predicted these slides could become more reactive and dangerous.
