<p>Skinned up to Rohr ridge and skied out via Stellar Bowl.
Nice and calm at the road (0 degree) although slight wind and colder at the ridge (-8C and felt colder with the Windchill)
Had a whiteout condition dropping into the bowl but the visibility improved as we lost elevation.
Snow condition. About 5 to 15 CM (depending on the elevation) fresh snow sitting on the old snow. Although the new snow is not fully bonded to the old snow and occasionally breaks under the skin on traverses, we didn't observe any sign of cohesion of the top layer and overall instability.
There is slight wind slab forming on the ridge line however not too concerning at this point and was not reactive.
Good power condition on the bowl specially the lower portion which was amazing skiing,
