Took standard route into Kendall trees via commonwealth basin. Conditions stormy throughout the day, sun peaking out briefly for some periods. Stuck to "Upper Trees" area most of the day, N-NW aspect. Avoided open slopes due to forecast. Did not experience any instability signs beyond dry sluff on steeper parts of our skiing.
