Comments

Moderate RP hand shear result down 20 on SH (2-3) laying down flat under pencil minus windslab half way up Baldy.

Terrible riding in the trees on the south side of the highway. Decent dust on crust riding in open slopes on the north side of the highway (eg Cornice Ridge).

Lots of debris from cornice fall on the south face of cornice ridge. We skied the mellower lines to the skiers left of the debris.
