Skied at Ashman today. Temps stayed cool throughout the day with snow on southern aspects staying cold and no signs of pinwhelling/rollerballing. At ridgecrest strong northeasterly winds have formed hard wind slab. Looking into the North/East side of the bowl looked very wind effected so we decided to ski on the south where ski quality looked better. We were able to trigger a small pocket of wind slab on a southwest facing slope just below ridgecrest. Skiing on the south was good with snow staying cold through the day.
