Kept out of the wind zone and traveled in sub 30° degree terrain. Easy and fun traveling on sled and skis. Stable conditions in the area we traveled. Upper elevation steeper terrain, especially in the wind zone was probably a different story. Old snow/new snow interface produced clean shears, although it took a hard effort to fail. Reflected in our tests was also a concern for deep slab instability; steep, north facing terrain would be the most likely place to find this kind of problem. Great storm!

Moderate danger where we traveled. Considerable in steeper, wind loaded terrain. Keep in mind the amount water weight we added to the snow pack in a short period of time coupled with the strong winds that accompanied the storm.
