Observations

We skied a variety of aspects around Platinum, Bullion, and Crown Point. No avalanche activity/collapsing/whumpfing noted on the lower-angle terrain we skied. However, from Crown Point and Union Creek, we noted 3-4 past recent slides on ESE aspects along the ridge from Buillion towards Platinum. These slides have been documented by others' observations today, but I thought I'd add a few photos. These photos were taken aroun 230pm-330pm.
