Comments

Skied low angle(20-25 degrees) Log Cabin trees and found lovely snow today. Skinned above the cutline ~150 feet and found crust and wind effect. Tested some loaded rolls to no avail. Had a few whumpfs down in the trees on the sides of the gulleys at the bottom of the run (almost always experience this in these kinds of sheltered places, so found it more noteable that we didn't experience any whumpfing everywhere else, than noteable that we had settlement where we did). Noted some naturals in the area - front E facing shoulder in Cleveland looked like a size 2ish, and the big bowl skiers left of the dog's leg at Log Cabin had debris from earlier in the week.
