Bluebird day with confident route selection. We rode 30-38 degree slopes with minor sluffing of unbonded facet snow observed on top of previous sun crust. Convex slopes with a combo of sun+wind crust (more of the former) were avoided. Sun exposure allowed previously ridden areas to soften up and be more enjoyable.
