Surprisingly decent skiing on OXO today. Snowpack at TL and above was relatively supportive with ski pen averaging 20cms, but up to 50 in, thinner areas lacking the supportive slab over the basal FC. Evidence of an older natural avalanche cycle up to sz 2.5 in the ALP, suspect ran in the basal FC. Experienced some settlements and shooting cracks in shallow areas on but no movement on the low angle terrain.
