Skiing was good in the Helen Shoulder burn and glades. Open slope at the burn showed no signs of instability and snow was floaty powder with a supportive crust underneath. The glades showed little sign of instability, however some whumpfs were observed when skiing, especially when punching through the crust lower down. However these were small localized settlements. Overall a good day out! Also note that temps were quite warm in the sun today and surface snow was beginning to get heavier.
