Traveled Bumps to Fissile today. 2200m - 1700m elevation travelled. Extreme winds overnight from SE through SW redistributed yesterday's snow above 1700m. Windslabs to 20cm found on various asp below ridgetops. Touchy in steeper terrain and easily ski cut to sz 0.5. Cornice tabs sensitive and failing to sz 1.0 naturally. Storm slab seems well-bonded to old surfaces and rarely deeper than 25cm. Between 1820 and 1920 a rimed zipper crust exists on all asp but does not hinder turns. Best skiing on wind buff above 1760m. 3 cm new in power flurries today.
