Toured up by Texas, skied east aspect low angle open slopes and steeper dense trees. On the climb, we set off a few storm slabs down about 40cm on features greater than ~35 degrees, on a very firm crust. Below that, there were some whoomphs but nothing slid, consistent with our resistant planar hand shear tests. The crust was not felt everywhere though interestingly. Isolated dry loose on steep treed slopes.
