Great day up at hilda, surprised by Temps and Ski quality. -16 @ the car, start and end of the day. Mostly clear all day with mod to strong winds from the north consistantly transporting snow @ 2800m+. South aspects skied well with thin wind skin up high, dissappearing at ~2200m. Great coverage throughout. Couple of test pits and hastys gave unrepeatable results on a new 4F wsl and on one of the Oct crusts which are deteriorating. Natural loose dry avalanches to size 1 from steep N aspects and small windslab results on multiple aspects below Ridgecrest or crossloaded features to size 1.5. All in the last 24 hrs.
