Red Flags Comment
<p>Not too many flags today. Felt pretty good about the pack. Had some cracking when ski cut roll at top of monitor. had a soft slab crack off, but didn't go any where. Had loose snow sluff start and travel slow. Skied next to it for a little while, then was able to get well in front of it.</p>

Instability Comment
<p>Had some loose snow sluffing down steeper areas, very slow moving and manageable.</p> <p>Saw a small area along the ridge in some trees holding a wind slab. Didn't see any other wind slabs.</p>

Snow was light on top.  I think there was some recrystalizing going on, could see some surface hoar beginning to grow along the PC ridge.
