Final day AST 2 course, tour around Hankin. Recent windslabs continue to be reactive to skier traffic. We were able to intentionally trigger small, windloaded test slopes on E -NE asp steep Alp terrain features, with slabs 20-40cm thick. There was also a report of a skier triggered avalanche with another group in the Cardiac area. Inversion today with above 0c temps into Alp, and moist snow on solar aspects. Of note, large, corn flake size hoarfrost has grown thick on all the cut tree runs.
