Not seeing anything fresh looking around the East River Valley.
Weather: Clear with increasing clouds in the afternoon. No wind.
Snowpack: 40 to 60cm. Variable snowpack structure, any potential PS avalanche problem was isolated in the terrain. Mostly soft snow over weak snow, or soft snow over wind-board over weak snow. Skiing nicely with yesterdays new snow having come in without wind in the area and cold temps keeping surfaces weakening and soft.
