Comments

Good skiing found in the grizzly shoulder area all day.

Observations:

Loose dry snow would run a bit off very steep rolls/pillows (45°+)

Bit of a sun crust present under soft surface snow on open SW aspects.

S/SW moderate winds at ridge top, transporting some snow.

Snow in windy areas was stiffer and starting to consolidate, although we did not encounter windslabs.

Was surprised how good the area was skiing, especially towards puff Daddy, felt like there were few tracks and plenty of fresh lines to be had.
