About 20cm covered a skin track I personally used last yesterday at 2pm, making the estimated new snow 35-45cm (past 36h) in the Shames drainages. SW wind moderate at times at TL, evident loading in lee ridge top features. Audible avalanches coming from Valley of Certain Doom. Greatest skiing yet. Snowing less this afternoon than some forecasts suggested. On and off s-1 throughout day. FL ~400m (halfway down Shames access road) as of 2pm
