Today we toured into the Divide Cirque. We observed multiple small loose dry avalanches that released from steep rocky terrain while approaching the cirque.

We found 35 cm of fresh snow and were surprised with multiple unstable pit results (ECTV, ECTP8) at 9450 feet on a SE aspect of Divide Peak. 11 other skiers had skied the slope without any signs of loose dry avalanches.

We backed off of Divide Peak and found fresh snow that bonded well to windcrust on non solar aspects on Hyalite Peak.
