Double plus windy out there but still a nice day in the mountains. Managed to find some good turns in the glades and boulders with 5-15cm ski pen. Didn't venture further up the valley because of the wind (effect on slopes and general unpleasantness to hang out in). We had one whumph while skinning up the boulder field in the sorta place you'd expect a whumph. no avalanche obs. The sun packed some punch today but the wind up high kept the snow cool, somewhere around 1800m on the ski out the surface snow became moist and quite sticky.
