Skiing was amazing today. Started out the day like yesterday. Airblast in Two Chutes finally produced some results. 14-18" deep and pulling our both sides. Precip intensity picked up with the
wind around 1230 and the storm slabs got very reactive. Ski cuts produced widespread softslabs 2-4" deep breaking up to 80' wide and running far on all slopes over 36-37 degrees.

Danger increased around 1230, very touchy storm slabs. Plan to test Moonrise went out the door and we went into maintenance mode on core terrain.
