Overall snow depth varied between 180cm and 230cm. No signs of slab avalanche throughout our 20km journey, despite many point releases on sunny faces. We did an extended column test on the slope we skied. It produced no results (ETCN30). There was a supportive crust between 30 and 35 cm down. We didn't encounter wind slab on our north west facing slope in the (upper) treeline at 1900m. 10 to 15 cm of new snow made for awesome, fast skiing.
