I had a late start around noon. Met someone in the parking lot who had triggered a wet loose on the east face of buffalo at treeline in the late morning. He made it sound like he was caught and carried but wasn’t very clear about it either (photo attached of the loose wet - R1D1 on roughly a 35 degree slope near treeline). In the early afternoon, the snow on the buffalo up track below 12k was generally poorly bonded and starting to get wet. The snow on the north side of the mountain was still cold and dry above 11k. There was about a foot of medium density pow in silver sneak but it skied closer to 2 feet for most of the line after I kicked off some loose dries and small storm slabs near the entrance. For the storm slab, I could only get pockets about 10x5 feet to move on isolated convex rolls around 40 degrees. There was no wind slab present. Below 11k, the snow transitioned to poorly bonded hot pow with lots of wet loose activity. All the wet loose slides I triggered were small enough to be harmless to a skier unless in extreme terrain but there was one wet loose triggered by a different skier in the bottom of little Elvis that was a bit larger
