Observations

We took a couple runs on 25-35 deg slopes of ENE aspect of Table Mountain and E aspect below Herman Saddle. Only previous avalanches I saw were a couple size 1 wet loose on solar slopes probably from yesterday. We triggered only a couple very small dry loose on the steepest, shady parts of our runs. A couple hand pits on shady sheltered slopes going down from surface had gradually transitioning F-4F-1F in top foot or so of snow. Underlying crust felt while skiing on some slopes and surface snow was sun affected and crusted on solar slopes.
