No No name E facing had nice settled powder non winded and starting to facet. Sluffs could be initiated on the steepest parts of the slope, but not to the degree that I was seeing in No name yesterday. Pics skier initiated sluffs in No No Name, fairly minor.
Obvious debris piles at the bottom of No No Name was evidence that the slope had avalanched towards the end of the storm cycle, seems like a good thing to keep in the back of your mind.
Faceting and surface hoar develpement continues with cold nights and clear days. pics surface hoar forming at lower elevations, and faceting at higher elevation. Weak sugary snow also noted under 3 inch wind crust on E facing.
Radar Love was not as faceted as other areas traveled, probably because of the wind skin, but still producing sluffs in the steepest sections. Also of not was the choke in Radar Love is thin and faceted to the ground, fell through into the rocks when I skied through it, good thing to keep in mind when we get a new load of snow. Bad pic of skier initiated sluff.
