Skiing on a NE aspect from 2200 -1800 was good variable wind pressed powder. Skier 1 triggered a size 1 avalanche at 1800m, NE aspect. Avalanche propagated between skier number 1 and 2 on the slope, but both were able to ski out of the way. Skiing in treeline from 1800 - highway on a NW aspect was surprisingly very good quality dry powder. Conditions will probably hold.
