We observed widespread natural activity and one intentionally triggered D1 avalanche, N through E in the upper elevation band. All soft slabs either within the storm and on the N/O int. North winds were light during our tour and did not contribute to the hazard. Sun made a brief appearance around 1300 but did not effect ski quality.
