Skiing steep unsupported and aggressive terrain to 40 degrees only producing manageable sloughing to size 1 in the top 15cm of snowpack. Minor cracking in lee of light southerly winds observed near ridge top. Up to 7cm of new snow throughout the day. Test profile at 1950m on north facing glade at 1950m producing moderate to hard resistant shears down 40cm on small decomposing crystals to 2mm. No other results in the top 110cm of snowpack.
