We dug two snow pits in the top 1.2m of the snowpack in sheltered areas. We were hunting for weak interfaces within the top few feet of the snow to determine if new snow and wind slab avalanches were the only two avalanche problems we should be concerned with on the slopes we wanted to ski. We didn't find any weak layers in our pits. We found a few inches of new snow sitting on top of an right side up snowpack.

On the W aspects we found ourselves on today, we found a thin crust in wind sheltered areas and heavy wind stripping on the W facing ridgeline we traveled up. We only traveled in low and mid-elevation terrain today.
