Comments
Photo 1. South Monitor Bowl with wet rollerballs on the far, south facing wall, ski tracks in the middle from a few days ago before everything got sun crusted. Finally, in the foreground, you can see avalanche debris piled up against the trees from the last major avalanche cycle. All the north facing terrain in the bowl seems to have slid but has a bit of newer snow on top. We did not venture into the bowl.
Photo 2. Drainage channels in the previously dry snow from strong warming by the sun these past few days. Much of the south facing slopes are quite soggy and punchy, but the cooler temperatures may have hit the pause button.
