Observed a fair amount of whumpfing while breaking trail around treeline. Some wind affected snow on the shoulder but did not encounter any wind slab on our ride down. Decided to stick to mellow slopes and avoid steeper and open areas where we might trigger the storm slab. Observed some cracking near the treeline but did not experience any reactivity during the entire run. Lots of nice fluffy pow to play around with! Exit was tight and slow with a little less coverage and plenty of alders.

Snowpack

Dug a pit on top of griz shoulder before scoping out our entrance to Puff Daddy. Had similar results from multiple tests, CTM13 down 30cm RP on a 1cm thick layer of facets and small surface hoar.
