Quick report

Collapsing
isolated

We avoided all avalanche terrain today. There were small, shallow windslabs on exposed mid elevation ridge lines and we suspect the problem is worse in the alpine. We observed many large avalanches in the Boulders in alpine terrain once the sun came out in the afternoon. We also observed one large avalanche on a north facing slope at middle elevation off Titus Ridge.
