Snowpack
The meadow was very wind scoured, while the skin track was a little punchy. We skied the left side of the center aisle trees. The snow was wind scoured on top, and punchy underneath. We did not experience any instability in the snow pack. The middle portion of the run was softer than the first and the last portion of the run was the softness due to deposited wind blown snow.
