Comments

5-8cm’s dust on crust on a north aspect between 1700m and 2000m. Saturday/Sunday’s rain to ridgetop really helped consolidate the snowpack.

As of Tuesday afternoon there had been minimal wind accompanying the new snow so there was no slab. Ski quality is alright, minimal sluffing even in steep terrain. No signs of instability observed out there on Monday or Tuesday.
