Numerous wet loose avalanches, D1 in size or less, mostly originating as point releases from rock features. Very warm temperatures and clear skies in the morning turned to clouds which led to some green housing. Easily sinking 8-12" in unpacked snow around low elevation trails. Similar activity with steep south facing slopes in black canyon.
