15cm HN on Ogden shoulder made for some fun skiing for the 20 people up there today. Skied the mellow meadows with a few convex rolls to catch you out. Ski cut into the top of one of the larger rolls and managed to get the whole thing to propagate. Nice to confirm our suspicions of the storm snow bonding poorly. Great skiing to be had by everyone judging from the amount of whoops heard around the basin. Picture shows the slope but a very marginal view, my apologies
