Triggered several small D1 dry loose on steeper slopes between 5-6k
None reported
Lots of dry loose activity on slopes over 35 degrees. As started gaining elevation above the lake the snow was light and not forming into slabs. North facing aspects skied very well where enough snow had accumulated to not hit the crust. Spring like weather with periods of heavy snow and small patches of sunshine. Picture shows some sluffing on a slope about 40 degrees, NW aspect at 6000ft.
