Red Flags
Poor Snowpack Structure
Red Flags Comment
<p>With several crusts sandwhiched between weakening faceted layers, snow structure is certainly biggest red flag</p>

When winter returns, and we know it will, these sunny slopes with the Sage sticking out will be your safest alternative to slopes facing the north half fo the compass that are harboring old snow.

With changing weather on tap later this week, remember... just 'cause you can see your rig from the ridge, doesn't mean the snowpack is good to go or shares your same level of stoke.

Instability Comment
<p>A couple crusts highlighted with snow cards in my pit. While snowpit tests didn't produce any shocking results, the crust closest to the ground is the one to keep an eye on.</p>

Variety of different conditions, but overall good riding considering the lack of snow
