Quick report
-Today was a warm spring-like day and I did not encounter fresh signs of wet-loose instability on the solar slopes I travelled on. Most south facing slopes have no or little snow in this area. There are currently limited options for usable south facing terrain. -There was not much snow in the flats near Twin Lakes, but there was enough coverage for skinning as I moved further up the main canyon of Robinson creek. It seemed like this area had received a decent refreeze last night as snow was supportable. The south-facing slope I ascended was consolidated corn snow that was softening as I skinned up between 10 AM and noon. When I descended at 1230 PM, I could not produce significant rollerballs or any wet-loose activity. Only signs of previous old wet-loose activity could be observed in the area. While I did not encounter significant signs of instability, I did see some rockfall come down adjacent south facing chute around noon.
