Snowpack
CT moderate (15) resistant release down 70 cm on small facets above the Dec crust. NE at 1780m. ECT easy (8) planar and propagation resistant down 30 cm. Recent storm snow slab. NE at 1780. The skiing was stunningly deep and soft. No cracking or releases on layers. Sluff with steeps was the issue at hand. Thankfully it didn’t gain much mass. We avoided terrain traps. A lot of fun was had.
