The Thurs - Fri storm delivered around 75cm of light fluffy snow above 1100m. Below 1100m it was wet and heavy. Saturday the sun came out in full force and sun exposed slopes experienced pin wheeling in the alpine. Below 1350m sun exposed slopes also became quite wet and formed a light crust as temps and the sun went down. No natural slides observed but multiple sluffs and size 1 slides were caused by skiers. It was a dream to ski from sunrise to sunset.
