Observations

Went to the upper alpine areas of Baker Creek. Was expecting to see some natural activity due to the temperature and bright sun. No avalanches or signs of instability were observed, even in the usual spots. A couple of stucks showed us that the slab just under the most recent snow is still present. We did a couple of test cuts on some short, steep hills and did not see anything suspect.
