Amazingly deep powder in the grizzly Couloir. I don't even know how snow can stick to a slope in such large quantity. Was worried about the crust on steep solar aspects, but the snowpacm already had some skier compaction from the previous days. Still blower powder (probably from wind deposition). We avoided riding skiers right of the couloir in fear of wind slab. None were triggered.
