Observations

A spring day in the Olympics, clear skies and corn snow. Toured out to Hurricane Hill today on a mix of crusts and corn snow several inches deep in places. Chilly wind, but the sun packed punch and warmed up S aspects. large cornices guard the steep northern slopes on the approach ridge around " steep and icy". No new avalanche activity was observed and the Bowl on Hurricane hill was perfect corn.

Media

Nice coverage coming into spring. Should be skiing at HR for some time.
Cornices to be avoided and loose wet "roller balls" from Wednesday.
The bowl on Hurricane Hill did not disappoint with primo corn top to bottom.
