Snow surface was a mixed bag. Low elevation snow was quite dense, sometimes damp, varied in supportability, and featured breakable wind crust. Solar aspects hadn't seen much sun at the time of our exit but while they were soft on the uptrack, some were already sporting thin zipper crusts on the downhill. The couple inches of new snow seemed to largely be rimed forms, on top of wind affected snow beneath. The best riding was found on mid elevation, sheltered, lower angle slopes where the wind affected snow was supportive and made for fast skiing through the couple inches of yesterday's new snow on top.
