We played it super safe and stuck to mellow meadow runs for the most part. Snow was dreamlike with nice consistent snow. One potential settlement with boot penetration on the meadow flats. No pit dug, but no considerable slab formation that we saw until later afternoon on the 28th. Storm snow was gaining some cohesion but didn't propogate. A few test cuts on (small) convexities in the rock garden (below treeline) had no results. No signs of instability when skiing.
