Comments

Skied around the longworth lookout. Alpine was wind affected on all observed aspects. Snow quality below treeline was excellent! We also skied steeper trees on both North and South aspects. Probed 220cm near the snow weather station. We observed older avalache debris on west facing aspects, maybe a week old. Wind slabs were our main concern but did not observe any active instability.
