Had some pretty good turns considering the rain last week. There was probably 15-20cms of light fresh powder on top of a ~2cm thick supportive crust from the big rain. We had some very minor sloughing on the crust in some steeper spots but nothing to worry us. If you went fast enough you didn't even tough the crust! We had some sun and warmth around 10:00 which by 2 had disappeared and become cloudier and colder.
