No new slab avalanches were observed. In the alpine, sluffing was observed up to size 1.5 out of very steep solar aspects.
The biggest concerns were multiple buried suncrusts in the top 40cm on solar aspects at treeline and alpine. These areas were largely avoided, but no natural or skier triggered activity was observed on these layers. The other major concern was the variable snow depth and basal facets in shallow areas. Cornices are large and were treated with respect.
Ski quality was excellent and winter snow pack conditions were found on northerly aspects. The transition to spring conditions and corn skiing has not yet occurred, although this is likely to change in the next few days with the forecast warming trend, and large avalanches are possible on solar aspects.
