Fire break

Treeline snow depth ~ 90 cm. Lower half is very loose and facetted, possibly facetted throughout. Then 20-30 cm much denser slab from the warm snowfall this week, and another ~20 cm nice unconsolidated stuff on top. Lots of whoomfing. One impressively big one triggered by skier spanning something like 50 x 50 m and dropping snow from trees. Ski pen through the surface snow (ankle), boot pen to ground. Broke sled trail in from the road with much effort.
