Yesterday (1 April), we skiied a north aspect. The new snow has settled some, but we still had boot top powder. No recent wind effect, no natural avalanches or cornice drops observed - but there are some monsters up there (photo)!
It was cool, overcast and calm all day with light afternoon flurries.
There is a sun crust on solar aspects from 31 March.
