Japanese Trees

<p>There was an avalanche in the Japanese Trees within the last 7 days, cornice release wind slab. Dug a pit in the wind slab and released on one from elbow. Rest of slope was quite safe. Seems a bit of overhead hazard in the area, where warm temps today might have taken care of some of it. The sun is warming up south facing slopes enough now turn the snow wet and heavy, and also create a crust ( those sun crust layers also prob gone now). </p>
