Comments
Spent the morning mostly inbounds at Manning. By the time we left st noon, the sun was poking out and temps were above zero. Before that, great skiing, knee+ ski penetration in the powder in the trees. Above 1700 it was windy (from the west-ish) and a windslabs was forming, but ski cuts couldn't get thst or anything lower to move.
On the drive out under more sun, much pinwheeling observed on steeper slopes, but nothing seemed to be moving with it.
