Wind drifting from south winds certainly a factor on Cornice Ridge.... All of a sudden there's good coverage in the rocky terrain west of Tony Grove Lake...

Fresh avalanche activity involved new snow. I could see shallow wind slab avalanches and loose surface sluffs in steep terrain...

Evidence of good sized natural persistent slab activity from early in the storm exists, but it's deeply buried and obscured by a couple feet of powder and drifting.

The powder is so deep that it's hard to travel through. The deep snow appears to be keeping most folks out of trouble. There are great riding opportunities in the meadows and lower angled terrain away from and out from under dangerous steep drifted slopes.
