Comments
Heavy snow on all aspects. No stability issues on slopes that were skied other than pin wheeling everywhere. Ok snow in valley bottom and above 1800. Dug pit at 1700 m and pack was approx 110 cm, bottom 1/3 looked very wet and crappy looking (that is a technical term), above that there were no obvious layers or signs of instability.
