Comments:
Triggered a soft slab in Blueberry. Failure layer was midway through the storm snow.
None reported
Found mostly excellent riding conditions in Bagley on light, unconsolidated powder. Storm snow seems to be bonding well to the April fools day crust. Triggered a small slide that ran on a layer midway through the new snow.
No signs of significant wind transport. We encounter a single snow surface that felt wind affected. Saw a few loose dry point releases.
