Comments
2cm per hour throughout the day with >15cm accumulation from 8am to 2pm. Early in day getting small cracks and fractures with weight. By end of day seeing remote triggers (photo) while skinning. No whumpfing. Photo in slope is east facing at ~1900m. Steep, rocky area. Crust still could be felt under new snow at ~1700m. Didn’t ride below that.
