Comments
Snow stability felt really good all day. Toured up through the trees on a pretty steep slope but didn’t notice a slab or any instability. Broke out on a col infront of Mt Chester and had some open turns before diving back into trees. Friend did a snow profile up high and we found the crusts, but it felt secure
