Quick report

There is bulletproof ice along the ridge from Alpine and hiding under pow/crust on some south slopes. Sharps highly recommended. We found surface hoar (cups ranging from 3-5mm) on shaded E aspects up to 8000 ft. By 3pm hoar on solar aspects had mostly melted but some small cups remained in places and large cups were still present on shady slopes

Avalanche

Observed old dry loose slides in steeper areas, but we did not trigger anything or experience significant sluffing on our runs
