Sunshine, Snow, and a Spotty Weak Layer

We found sunshine, powder and a spotty persistent weak layer at Allen Creek. The powder was on all aspects with little wind and we didn't see any new avalanches in the back-country. We sled tested all the small steep slopes and little rollovers we could find and that resulted in just good riding. While we did still get results on that persistent weak layer we only saw it on sheltered north facing slopes away from busy riding areas. We decided to stay in the sunshine and enjoyed the new snow away from north facing slopes.

Beautiful sunny day
