Just up the lift to SK/Raven ridge and over for a lap into 5 mile basin. First steep turns off the top were definitely sluffy on the unconsolidated storm snow, Otherwise, no sign of cracks/slabs. The storm snow was classic kootenay coldsmoke pretty much to valley bottom. Although still a few obstacles/blowdown to dodge as you lose elevation below the bench. But a great and welcome reset!
