Snow Conditions

No signs of instability. Hard 5cm boot supportive crust above 1650m on all aspects. Could have used ski crampons but ended up boot packing easily to the top. Skiing was fun with the 10cm of snow but still loud. We saw an old avalanche from the probably Wednesday that released on a north aspect and ran to ground and across the skin track. Covered it with 2-3m of snow. Interesting to see it there as we expected it would’ve released.
