Observations

Possible wet loose avalanche on the NE face of Whistler Mountain. It was hard to tell the type of avalanche due to flat light and distance. Ran possibly 500-700 feet and 50-100 feet wide. No other avalanches visible. Variable snow conditions depending on aspect. Quiet day at the pass and minimal wind.
