Comments
Today's travel was from Swan Flats towards the Idaho border. Snow surfaces remained frozen until exposed to the sun, then quickly turned to slush. Mid-level clouds covered the ridgeline between Cornice Ridge and Doubletop, which may have kept surfaces colder in that zone. While snow surfaces were changing in the Swan Flats area, I did not observe any roller balls or wet avalanches. I imagine things will start to become more "un-glued" tomorrow with increasing hazard through the week.
