- <p>previously mentioned 4 small windslabs. </p> <p>Previously mentioned. Impressed with how most are dialing it back a bit this year.</p> <p>for tommorow, gonna check the box for recent loading past 48 hours.</p>
south side of the compass did not bake as much yesterday as I thought. quite a bit of variability mostly due to wind. in the flats, snowboard would edge lock, nose would try to bottom ride, had to be on back foot hard. green runs too slow to have fun, took a blue square. tracks were filling in quite well midslope and higher.
