Snow Conditions

heavy, powder

Snow was 140-160cm deep, no obvious crusts found, and snow was quite compact throughout. Weak layer at 120cm (CT 10-10-3). Snowed ~ 10cm during the day so small storm slabs seen while skiing, but nothing out of the norm at tree line. We saw nothing once we dropped into the trees. Ski from top to bottom was pretty enjoyable with good fun snow all the way to the car. Heard a large avalanche across the valley (West of us) but did not see or hear anything else due to conditions.
