Good skiing! Morning 10 and 30 cm quick uptrack cut tests were stable, but once it began to warm up under the sun, these began to fail (around 15 cm deep). We stayed on angles 30° and less. It looked like a few of the upper chutes had some size ~1 releases probably from cornice failures recently. These ran around 30-50 m.
