Quick Ob from today.

Yesterday’s new snow instabilities appear to have settled out.  1 large sluff was the only movement observed in two runs this morning. 

Main concern is solar radiation.  We all agreed that we skied an east facing slope just in time at about 11am.

Lots of sluffing occured during various times of the last storm cycle, some big, no crowns observed.
