Comments

Great day out in Maligne just south of Bald Hills. Skied a N aspect. Probed 150cm on the slope we wanted to ski. Dug a pit for a compression test and did not have any surprising results (ie. all results were resistant planar). The midpack was fairly consolidated. Winds were coming from the SW and gusts were between 20-30km on the ridgetop. Did not encounter any windslab formation on the slope that we skied. Overall we had a great day of skiing on N aspects.
