Comments
Pit tests reflected easy to easy medium effort to fail with Q2 quality shears.

Traveled from 7400-10,500, north half of the compass, slope angles to 32°. Kept to more gentle terrain and stayed out of the upper elevation wind effected terrain. Wasn't able to see much due to limited visibility.
A little more energy in the upper part of the snow pack today with pit test mostly failing on the interface between this past weekends storm and the old snow surface. If triggered, in the right type of terrain, slides could break to deeper weak layers in the pack. Steep wind loaded terrain would be the kind of terrain to avoid tomorrow.
Moderate to considerable danger tomorrow.
