A trip through the trees on Narao Shoulder, due to some route finding issues we went a bit higher than intended and came to the edge of the treeline. The snow up here was crusty and heavy, and there was a size 1.5 slide with a crown maybe 50cm deep at one point. The ski down was all pretty wet and heavy, with wet loose slides on most turns.
