Comments
Sun came out late afternoon creating moist snow to 1750m. Steep convexities ski cut with 1.5 Sc result. steep convexities in open trees had sluff running on the crust easily with some shooting cracks in isolated wind loaded areas. Wind transport was very significant, breaking trail on every lap with winds from the SW.
