Only potential red flags observed was some pretty fast warming from the morning to the afternoon (~20°F increase), and a maybe recent, small dry loose avalanche on only northern aspects, pics below; observed two other similar looking avalanches on same aspect. Unsure of age, pretty certain of them being naturally triggered.
Observation: Hatcher Pass
Location: Two-Mile Creek-Near Gold Mint
Started at Gold Mint parking lot at 10:30am, walked down gold mint trail for two miles and turned right into the two-mile creek zone just past delia creek to check out northern aspects and to do full profile pit tests.

Snow surface
In the morning snow surface was 3-4cm of dry new snow on all aspects over a melt-freeze crust varying from ~7cm supportable on solar aspects and ~4cm breakable on all other aspects. By 14:30, warming temps and aggressive sun affect caused snow surface on observed solar aspects to be so that the top 3-4cm of new snow to become moist, and for the melt-freeze crust to become wet and to start melting.
