Comments
Did 4 laps of the Brandywine tree runs from the metal dome shoulder at 1800m down to the meadows. Rapid settlement of storm snow with moderate temps. Ski pen near 60 in the morning down to 30 by end of the day making things reasonably skiiable!
Did not observe any avalanches due to obscured weather. Boot pen 80cm. Tree wells are incredibly deep an unsupportive.
