wet tree bombs! 🛩️🌲💣🙀

<p>Good snow and riding above 1600m, although on the heavy side. Below that, that the snow was considerably heavier and wet. The storm slab was still a bit reactive, especially above 1600m where it was the most preserved. (Shooting cracks, small slab pieces releasing). No signs of wind. Tree bombs were terrifying, and there were lots of them.</p>
