Avy conditions squelched a couple of more aggressive destinations so we opted for Silver Peak Basin. An extreme lack of commitment to destination fueled by a foot or more of light fluffy on a solid base in the trees and higher winds in the open (so THAT'S why the call it "Windy Pass"!!) found us yo-yoing a particularly fun 35-40 degree gladed slope, having totally forgotten the original destination. We were actually quite happy staying in the glades, due in part to the obvious signs that the foot or two of recent would obviously slough on the base in more open terrain. The weather wasn't much for picture taking but we did get a couple of passable ones to show conditions, which are posted here.
