Winter isn't over yet! Very stormy conditions today, with 10cm new snow falling in a three hour period this morning, accompanied by strong E winds. We observed slab development in specific locations up to 80cm deep, but no cracking or recent natural avalanches observed in areas skied. Some sluffing with skier traffic in steeper trees. Moist snow below 1200m.
