Comments

First day of a weekend SWG trip. No signs of previous avalanches in the area. We stuck to mellow slopes and found the snow to be very stable. Riding conditions were amazing and likened to groomed runs with a bit of powder on an unbreakable crust.
Dug a mini pit and found a weak layer from compression test about 10-15 cms down. Took some good smacks from the shoulder to crack.

A bit wind affected up top but otherwise very consistent conditions on this mellow slope
