crusty, powder

Skied up at Panorama ridge. The track up is in pretty good shape with a couple small rocks poking through here and there. Snow depth in the skiable area was around 70 cm with 10-15 of powder on crust and then facets to the ground. Skiing was ok but could definitely still feel the crust underneath the powder. Despite strong winds we didn’t see any wind crust or wind slab at treeline where we were skiing. We saw one point release size 1 avalanche in super steep terrain under the trident couloir otherwise no signs of instability. Still a great day to be out :)
