We expected shitty conditions but with the new snow (15 to 25 cm) the riding quality was really good. We rode the North and North East aspect. There was some pockets of wind affected snow but in general it was powder! We didn't experienced any signs of instability before reaching 1200m (see picture 1). We didn't go higher than 1200m because the snowpack was shallow, wind affected, the day was warm and we started to experienced shooting crack and small slab release.
