I found an interesting weak radiation crust, shallowly buried under a couple inches of light new snow on a south-southwest facing slope at around 8800' in elevation. It was quite weak, failing easily upon insolation on small sugary or small grained faceted crystals just beneath it.

There were some nice cornices on the ridge above Crescent Lake, and after making sure nobody was below I dropped a couple onto the steep north facing slopes below. In doing so, I was able to initiate some pretty good sized loose avalanches. This one packed a bit of a punch, running a few hundred vertical feet and gaining width on the steep slope.
