I uploaded a photo describing the snowpack density profile. Wind touched the new snow from 48 hours ago, creating a variable ski experience. Whumphing, shoosting cracks, and drum band noises on the walk uphill warned us of impending slab attacks. Planks with less edges had a slightly more enjoyable time on the downhill. Humans can release the snowpack tension in slab form if they touch the convexity in just the right spot.
