Comments
Great day beyond the repeater on Frisbee, the wind was moderate gusting strong from S-SE and deposited a nice quantity for pow carving! HS back here was 170cm and foot pen to 40 cm, -3 and blowing !! The front had less snow but there is definitely a wind slab in the lee slopes especially at higher elevations (> 1500 m and more open terrain) so be wary when the sun comes out, avalanche danger exists!
