Flints

Toured in the Flints this weekend on all aspects between 8-9k ft. Solar aspect had begun to develop a melt freeze crust. Consistent SW winds effectively transported the foot of low density snow which had fallen over the last week. Prevailing winds swirled off ridge tops and had begun to effect leeward slopes scouring and drifting below treeline. Above treeline, alpine slopes were primarily scoured with significant drifting noted in some leeward alpine basins. No significant signs of instability observed aside from isolated cracking of wind slabs on ridges.
