Snowpit Observations
More detailed information about the snowpack: 

No evidence of any snow transport in this area today or previously with very calm conditions throughout the day.  There were several previous storm slab and wind slab avalanches that occurred along the main ridge up to Trimmer Peak-see photos.  These were thought to have occurred on Sunday evening and were mostly covered by additional storm snow.  Informal observations in these areas indicated that these avalanche problems were no longer an issue.
