Comments

Made the long sled haul up to the Renshaw cabin. 50-100 HST is sitting on top of the crust. Temp at the cabin around 1pm was -6.7C. The sun came out in the afternoon. We didn't have to travel far from the cabin to find fresh turns as the powder was extremely deep and limitless. No signs of instabilities, but a previous avalanche cycle covered by the new HST was observed. Probably the deepest riding day for our group ever!
