Comments
Aspect made a pretty noticeable difference today; the south facing terrain with a stouter, slicker crust seemed to sluff more easily, but it was still generally easy to manage. North and east aspects took a bit more pitch to sluff. That said, we avoided the most exposed and steeper stuff in the zone that we were in; the skiing was fast enough that lower angled terrain skied well without pushing up the slope angles and exposure to bigger, more connected slopes. I think that a day/night of settlement will tighten things up a lot and sluffing will cease, at least until the snow disintegrates again with time if we don't get much more.
