Quick report

We saw a few natural slides up high off hardscrabble that were coming down a south east facing slope. The wind through out the day was coming almost straight out of the south sustained 20-30mph gusting easily into the 50-60s, major snow transport off south facing and heavy depositing into the north facing. Our pit showed a very cohesive snowpack, from surface down to about three feet, little facet layer about a foot from ground under a solid melt freeze, pit was about four feet deep.
