My ski partner did witness a whumphing on the upper bowl on a NW aspect while traversing. Many wet loose were observed on solar aspects.
Temps in the high teens/low twenties to start the day at 9AM. Clear skies gave way to partly cloudy and then mostly cloudy by 4PM.
Northern aspects are holding soft snow with a some wind effect on higher elevation along the ridges.
Dug a quick pit at:
