Skied Trimmer Peak today leaving the car around 0900. From the car, traveling on mostly N/NW aspects, to <8k, 6 in or less new snow coverage was very thin. By 1100 on N/NE at 8k+, new snow pole probe showed 12+ in of new snow. Informal mitt pit shows no slab formation. Precip rate fluctuated up to S2 with light N/NE winds. Test slopes on N/NW NTL failed on new/old snow interface but hardly formed strong enough slabs to propagate. N-E aspects >8k held dry new snow. Snow on S aspects was already getting heavy and wet despite intermittent cloud coverage. N-E <8k was dust on crust, thinning to bare ground on the trail out.
