Comments

Skied from 1600m to 1200m in old growth trees. Decent ski quality although much denser than previous weeks low density snow, mild temps today around 0 deg. HST 30-40cm. Approx 60cm overlying Jan 15 FC/Cr. No reactivity on steep gladed shots to 40deg. No TL and Alpine obs. Stayed away from anything open and steep in the trees.
