Comments
MFC at the surface on sun-exposed slopes made for initially challenging skinning but rapidly softened on E and S aspects.
Pleasant cold turns on N to NW facing slopes with 5-10cm of dry cold snow on supportive crust above 1100m.
Plenty of balling on sun-exposed slopes by 2pm when we were back at car. A few small skier-triggered wet-loose.
No storm slab activity to speak of.
Sunny warm windless.
