I snowshoed to Reynolds Peak Monday PM. From the summit I could see some wet release activity on the southerly facing slopes of Gobblers (see pics). There were ski tracks (2 riders?) that I could observe up slope from the wet release activity.
Additionally, Reynolds and Tom's both had a number of backcountry skiers hitting their slopes. I included a couple of pictures on Reynolds as well.
