Recon mission to Brockton point just as the storm rolled in. HS ~200cm. Snowing 3cm per hour down to 500m. Dug a pit on a 35 degree, East facing slope, and found it harder than expected to trigger a release - 4 taps from the shoulder. That said, with the new snow and a shift in wind direction from South to East, this will likely turn in to a low probability, high consequence layer in the coming days. Skiing was floaty and fun, the snow was ideal for dropping off big features.
