Observations
No avy from today but the basin was full of death cookies on all aspects, up to ridge 6600’, universally all faces and runs, from what was likely late yesterday. Everything refroze overnight. No movement on any run. Wind slab but only at ridge line. Climbed out route away from cornices as day warmed up. Sun was out in basin compared to the resort being socked in precip. Interesting micro climate diff.
