Weather and Snow
Current Conditions: More mild weather. We've had scattered clouds, high temperatures in the upper 30s, lows in the mid 20s, and moderate speed wind from the east.
Mountain Weather: Mild weather continues. Wind from the north northeast will be light. Temperatures will get into the mid to upper 30s again. Weather models depict a change in the pattern next week but this morning's run is not looking as favorable for snow now.

Description
The snowpack continues to settle and relax. While there is weak snow out there, chances for triggering an avalanche are pretty low. If you're really looking for trouble, you could probably find it in the steepest, highest north facing terrain. If you experience cracking or collapsing (whoomping) of the snowpack, these are red flags and you should avoid any nearby steep slope.
