Probed a fair 90cm. Fresh snow from night before(10+cm) sitting on a crust layer that's firm enough to walk on. Morning was cool and we rode a little powder. then as predicted it warmed up by afternoon and was mashed potatoes. It was a good test in almost all snow conditions for my new sled. Rode a bit of everything with caution as it is still early season conditions. definitely needs a few more good snow falls to have more fun with less worry. Ride cautiously if you go we did notice at end of day the fresh snow was sluffing off of the crust layer as it warmed up.
