It was not the most productive field day today even though I traveled through quite a bit of terrain. Visibility was poor for most of the day so I was not able to get to look at many of the bigger avalanche paths to see if they had naturaled.

Trail breaking was becoming strenuous. I did feel lucky to bump into some real nice people who took me up to a sheltered low angled northerly facing slope. It provided very good powder skiing while I unsuccessfully attempted to 'wait out' the weather for better visibility and the possible glimpse into the larger paths.

I would speculate that the new snow and wind loading caused natural avalanches today.
