Winds persisted from S-SW last night and the windslab near leeward/exposed treeline and ridgetops is much more dense than yesterday. Average wind slab depth 30cm. Snow had a spoky feel. We stayed in the dense forest. The many ski tracks and slide debris from yesterday were covered and barely recognizable.
