Quick report
Originally planning to attempt Eldorado peak but backed off because we saw multiple crowns and many rollerballs. Stayed in south facing low angle terrain away from the cliffs above the bowl. While we were in the basin around noon we saw multiple instances of active shedding from snow above cliffs. Snow felt very wet by 2pm. Eldorado boulder field is partially snow covered and treacherous.
