Observations

Went for a tour around yodelin. Snow was dryer on the north side and the recent layers were very noticeable, but no signs of instability. Warming ocurred throughout the day and there was a lot of tree fall and the snow was sticky and heavy. On a steeper run on backside burn there we some small roller balls. Crowns were present on steep south slopes across the highway.
