Snow Conditions

Really good snow up on Little Kahuna. Visibility was pulsing in and out and was really flat at some times. There was ~15-20cm of fresh, slightly wet powder (being picky about powder saying it was slightly wet) on top of a well bonded base layer. Didn’t feel any pockets of instability on the whole approach and snow pack felt consistent from the lake up to the saddle where we transitioned. Temp was well below freezing from the road to the top. Skied a small south facing aspect on the way out and there was a lot more crust from the daily warming than on S aspects.
