good corn in the lower snowfield, yet another icefall/avalanche onto the Nisqually Glacier, same as Wed but fingers ran much further; warm overnight so snow was grabby below 6800 ft, melting quickly, runnels forming, heavey wet slide off the south of Alta Vista.
Thanks Andy ,that's helpful. We need some cold nights.

Funny to think that there was bottomless pow conditions 2 weeks ago.
