Nice little ski tour up the west Bullmoose today, definitely found evidence of wind slabs and wind affected snow. Triggered small cornices by stomping that then triggered small slabs below them in the new storm snow. When I hiked down to investigate, that’s when I triggered the lower slab of older wind affected snow sitting on old surface hoar. Below that it’s absolutely bombproof though.
