Wendy T, Marriott Basin Day 2

- Morning high cloud ceiling (above 2300m) burned off into full strong solar - Soft breakable crust on N/NE slopes - 11am skied E facing open slope from 1880 to 1720m, ~30 degrees, thin sun crust to soft/heavy underneath. Snow quality lighter & crust-free in the dense sheltered trees just above the trail - Temps warmed in the afternoon… exited the basin hot & happy - Additional pinwheeling but witnessed no further obvious signs of avalanche activity

Temperature range was extremely variable to elevation, shade and sun exposure making an accurate temperature report challenging.
