Mashed Potatoes

Riding quality was:

OK

Snow conditions were:

• Crusty
• Powder

We rode:

• Mellow slopes

The day was:

• Cloudy
• Warm

Avalanche conditions

• 30cm + of new snow, or significant drifting, or rain in the last 48 hours.
• Rapid temperature rise to near or above 0°C or wet surface snow.

Poor visibility kept us close to the trees today. Across the flats crusty surfaces make sledding a bit grabby and hot. The north aspect we skied had ~5-10cm of warm soft snow over a supportive temperature crust that we were not punching through.

Ok conditions out there, variable surfaces can make riding a bit nasty.
