Date of Observation: 11/28/2021
Name: Zach Guy
Zone: Northwest Mountains
Route Description: Upper Slate, traveled on east and northeast aspects to 12,000 ft.
Observed avalanche activity: No
Weather: A whole lotta nothing. Few clouds, light winds, mild temps.
Snowpack: Ski cut a few previously drifted features (below a cornice and in a crossloaded gulley) with no signs of instability. Surfaces continue to facet, eroding away at any slabs that formed last week. The melt-freeze vs dry snow line is right around 90* due east. Snowpack remains supportive to skis near and above treeline and becomes trapdoor or too shallow for making quality turns below treeline.
