Observations
It seemed like nearly every NE facing alpine slope located under a corniced ridge had a D2-3 wet slab. Some have been noted in other observations. Probably from the first heat wave of the year 2 weeks ago.
Moving E to E we observed crowns in basin E of Pica Peak, under Cornice Peak, basin N of Frisco Mountain, basin W of Frisco, basin above Ann Lake, slope below Fisher Peak, slope below Pyramid Peak.
