Quick Observation

We saw no signs of avalanches in the area, but the snow on open slopes was very reactive. There was a significant amount of wind loading happening. We preformed a compression test and experienced reactivity on the first easy tap. We also preformed a rutschblock test, and the entire recent storm slap gave way immediately. We decided to stay away from any open slopes, and had a wonderful day skiing powder in mellow trees.
