Skied 2 days around the KHMR Backcountry, skiing North and East aspects Generally things are improving, although it also felt a bit heads up and really would be nice to have another metre of snow! HS 0.9m - 1.5m in most areas. Thin around the Ridgelines, with typically ~40cm of facets overlaid by 30-50 cm of fist - 1 F. Generally upside down. Had lots of 0.5 wind slabs near Ridgeline, easily reacting to skicuts. In many cases scrubbing down into the facets where it's thinner and rockier. Con/con/mod definitely seems appropriate. The best skiing was certainly BTL where the snow wasn't wind effected and more rightside up /less punchy.
