From the parking lot to the forest there was about 5cm of fresh snow on a breakble crust. That crust disappeared in the forest and higher up. Winds started gusting around 13:00 from the north. By the time we skiied out there was about 10cm of fresh snow on the breakable crust down lower. Pit was dug on 30deg slope. CTE5 down 25 RP CTM12 down 35 RP CTH24 down 75 RP (crust)
