Rode Mongolia Bowl/Outer Mongolia Bowl trees today. Precip throughout the day with snow falling 3-4 cms above 1600m, rain below. Light to Moderate winds out of the SW that were stronger at ridge top. Temp taken at 1935m at 1335hrs was -1.7. HS ranged from 265-285 at treeline. No major signs of instabilities, but we did notice some small cracks when making kick turns on the up track. Natural size 1 witnessed off of Mammoths Head, unsure of trigger but likely cornice or tree bomb. Great skiing still to be had!
