Quick report

Ascended the north side of Two Oceans to 10400 feet. The snow was very wind affected above 10300 feet. Skied a somewhat sheltered tree run down to the prominent/slightly steeper opening in the timber at 10000 feet. A ski cut at the top of this slope triggered a soft slab roughly 6 inches deep and maybe 60 feet wide. A second ski cut further skiers left triggered a smaller soft slab roughly 12 inches deep. Appeared to fail on very firm melt/freeze crust.
