Weather today:  Full sunshine, light winds and very warm temps.  

Over 40degF in town, and it felt that warm at 9,000' on solar aspects also.

 

Small natural wet loose avalanche cycle today on steep, rocky solar slopes.

No collapsing, however:

ECTP15 at the new/old snow interface, on SE aspect around 9200'.

1mm facets above melt freeze crust.

Recent snowfall is much more of a cohesive slab now.
