Great day up in the Helen shoulder bowl area. The day started off with good vis and slowly turned to a cloudy day with light flurries. Skied a lap lookers left of the burnt trees and then 2 more further left in the bowl on lightly treed slopes. Found windslabs in the alpine and ski cut a small convexity at the top of our first line that was obviously loaded with no results. Snow wasn’t great on our first lap due to wind effect but our other laps in a more sheltered area where great (20-25cms of pow.)
