Skiing still good today across most aspects even around ridge tops. High winds forming new slabs on south, southwest and on cross loaded features even at lower elevations below ridge top (I.e. the steep trees at the bottom of Geronimo), though not particularly touchy yet in our experience. Observed one natural size 1 on a leeward south facing feature below fish bowl (pictured) and a larger one on the shoulder of Super Bowl in the spot that always goes. No other activity observed including across the valley in monkey bowl, etc. Not too windy in sheltered basins but sustained high winds on ridge top and down to the valley in more open east facing terrain. New surface hoar forming in sheltered tree line terrain around Cats.
